    Islanders' Brock Nelson Will Play for Team USA at World Championships

    Every year before the World Championship tournament starts, teams keep roster spots open for NHL players who are eliminated in the first round of the postseason. The New York Islanders fell in the first hurdle, so Brock Nelson has been added to Team USA. Nelson has spent his whole career with the Islanders, who drafted him 30th overall at the 2010 Draft. Now a rugged 32-year-old veteran, Nelson took some time before he achieved his best offensive season, setting a career-high of 75 points (36 goals and 39 assists) last season and was only six points short of that total this season.
