Danny Nelson doesn't just pursue the puck carrier, he guides them into pressure and goes for the breakup without chance. He steps into opponents, eliminates off-puck threats, supports plays, and shows a knack for getting open inside space. Nelson's a play-driver deeper in the lineup. He looks for controlled exits and entries, both as a passer and carrier. -EliteProspects 2023 NHL Draft Guide
