Sammy Nelson's Player Profile

Hannah Stuart - Bleacher Report - July 10th: "Nelson has shown he can be a consistent play driver and creator for the NTDP thanks to solid hands and good vision; he finished last season with 54 points in 58 games for the U18 team. With his work ethic, he should be able to translate that to the NCAA as well."

Steven Ellis - Daily Faceoff - July 2nd: "Nelson’s ability to drive the play and create consistent offensive opportunities made him so lethal. He’s a high-end shot generator, and he competes hard at both ends of the ice. I’m excited to see him play a leading role with Notre Dame this year."

Scott Wheeler - The Athletic - March 31st: "Nelson plays a driven game, has a pro shot, uses and plays off his linemates well and can play on the wall and to the net. He has some jump off the puck and keeps his feet moving to get open, too, which young players don't always do. He's also strong in the faceoff circle. Nelson just looks like he's going to have a long pro career as a top-nine forward and potentially more than that."
