Brock Nelson Evolves Into a Stealthy Scorer for the Islanders


Brock Nelson’s first phone call with Barry Trotz would mark the turning point of his career.

It was summer 2018 and Trotz – who had just been hired as coach of the New York Islanders – flew down to Los Angeles and joined GM Lou Lamoriello for a last-ditch attempt to convince John Tavares to re-sign on Long Island. While hunkered down at the Beverley Wilshire Hotel, Trotz made introductory calls to players. When it came time to give Nelson a call, Trotz got the chance to tell him something that had been on his mind since long before he was hired by New York.
