Isles’ Brock Nelson could be NHL’s most intriguing trade chip
One thing about the Four Nations Tournament: It is taking place just a couple weeks out from the March 7 NHL trade deadline.
And with much of the league apparatus set to descend on Montreal and Boston over the 10-day period commencing Feb. 10, the deadline likely will be just as big a subject as the tournament itself.
That might make for a whole lot of attention being paid to Brock Nelson.
Whether or not Nelson, who was named Wednesday to Team USA, ultimately will be made available in the final year of his deal is an open question — and might still be two months from now.
