Nielsen (unspecified issue) left the ice midway through Wednesday's practice.

Analysis:

At this stage, coach Jack Capuano has not confirmed whether Nielsen will play in Thursday's game against Columbus, but it doesn't sound as though the forward has suffered much of an injury setback. "He's been taking some maintenance days, so today's no different," Capuano noted Wednesday. "We've given him some time to rest and heal and we've had him, so we'll talk to our trainers and see where we're at."
