Re: Minnesota State Mavericks 2015-2016 regular season thread
Saw Casey Nelson play his first NHL game Saturday. Thought he looked great! Didn't seem out of place at all, and even got a few seconds on the power play, where his shot can make him a fixture as he gets experience. Did a nice job digging the puck out along the wall and starting a rush that led to Hudson Fasching's goal, and Casey's first point. Cool moment to see someone who came from unheralded NAHL guy to defensive player of the year to NHL player in 3 seasons. It speaks well for him and the program.
