Eric Nilson's Player Profile

Jason Bukala - Sportsnet - March 26th: "Darting forward who is deployed in all situations. (37GP – 12G-26A)"

Scott Wheeler - The Athletic - March 25th: "Nilson is a lean but intelligent center who is one of the smarter forwards in the draft on both sides of the puck. He takes smart routes with and without the puck, finds space in possession, always has his head and eyes up and processes the game at an advanced level."

Smaht Scouting - March 23rd: "He’s a well-rounded player with a mature game. Versatile and equally effective in both power-play and penalty-kill situations, he’s responsible, possesses elusive skating, isn’t afraid to battle in the tough areas in front of the net, and has a high hockey IQ when it comes to positioning, actions and movement on the ice."

Tony Ferrari - The Hockey News - February 28th: "Nilson is an understated two-way center who's more appreciated the more people watch him. Nilson is slowly rising up boards across the scouting world. His game is based around his intelligence and processing."
