Former Mavericks defenseman Casey Nelson (center of photograph) has been getting a great shot with the Buffalo Sabres in recent weeks, and on Sunday night, he scored his first NHL goal. Here's some video and another picture of the goal:

In the meantime, we're still waiting for Teddy Blueger to make his NHL debut. Despite getting the call up to Pittsburgh last week, he was a scratch for both Friday's and Sunday's games. Maybe Tuesday?
