Teams are still waiting to hear back from GM Lou Lamoriello as to Nelson's availability as of Wednesday and extension talks are ongoing.

The Islanders are looking to sell before the NHL trade deadline, but will New York's front office move long-time fan-favorite Brock Nelson?

Brock Nelson has a lot of reasons to be feeling sentimental right about now. He plays his 900th game as an Islander at Madison Square Garden on Monday night, becoming just the fifth player in franchise history to do so. If he makes it as far as Saturday in an Islanders uniform, he’ll pass Bobby Nystrom to be fourth on the all-time list.
