Nelson Hits 1000 Games; Wedgewood Milestone

Brock Nelson laces up for his 1000th career game, a mark that separates the grinders from the flash in the pan after all these years in the league's meat grinder. Wedgewood chases his own piece of history in net, the kind of night that reminds you why backups dream of starting gigs in big spots. With both hitting milestones amid a tight schedule, their performances carry extra weight for teams jockeying in the standings this late in the season.
