Darnell Nurse Posts Three Assists In Sunday's Win
1 year agoEdmonton Oilers defenseman Darnell Nurse ended a five-game point drought with three assists in Sunday's 8-2 triumph over the Ducks. Two of his helpers came in the first period when Edmonton battled back from a deficit twice and managed to win the frame 4-2. Nurse completed his hat trick of assists with a power-play helper as Mattias Ekholm finished the scoring late in the third. The 2023-24 campaign hasn't gone well offensively for Nurse, as this was his first multi-point outing, and he was sitting on only five points for the year before Sunday's matchup. However, he's still been impactful, with 45 hits and 45 blocks in 20 games, and Nurse's offensive numbers should improve with better performances from the team.
