…and thank you for visiting my official website. I'll be putting new material on the site often, so you can keep up with what I'm up to on and off the ice during the season.
I look forward to your feedback, and Go Islanders!

I look forward to your feedback, and Go Islanders!
Hey Frans, just thought i’d drop in and say that you did a great job at losing to the Penguins. I mean, with all the momentum your team had going into game three you guys had victory locked down….. that is until you stepped out on the ice. GREAT JOB ISLANDERS!!!
what the hell r u talking about daniel knab!!!!! Frans is a great defensive center and provides depth!!!! He played great, frans may not be a big goal scorer, but Frans is a valuable piece of the team!!!!!!
Hey Frans, Congratulations on making the playoffs. I’m a big fan and think your one of the best two-way players in the league, and the best at shoot-outs. Good luck, bring the cup back to long island where it belongs!
Frans, wanted to wish you a very Happy Birthday , it been great watching you play from the early days in Bridgeport right through all your games with the Isles. Congrats on making the playoffs , we know your line was such a big factor . We will be watching and cheering you on from section 303 .
Hey Frans
Tillykke med dagen, og tillykke med playoff , super, det må være en af de bedste gaver , du har fået ( kæmpet dig til ).Spændende kamp igår.Håber de viser nogle af jeres playoff kampe på dk tv.
Frans, met you in Moncton N.B. during your training camp. I was one of the drivers and still is a LOYAL ISLANDERS fan. Things seems to go better this year. I’ve been a ILANDERS fan since day one when they joine the league. I am a ZAMBONI driver and once in a while i drive around with my flang (islandera)attached to a hockey stick and my jursey on when flooding the ice. Kids love it! Good luck!

Frans,din baghånd er for vild på straffe,endnu vildere når man tænker på at alle målmændene ved hvad du gør. Sagt af en gammel målmand; altid op i taget;-) fortsat held og lykke i NHL
My roots are from Skjern, Denmark. Why my forebears changed our name to ‘son’ from ‘sen’ I’ll never know. Great to find you on the rink. I’m a Bruin fan, though. Sorry.
Hej Frans
Uanset stillingen vil jeg sige at I leverer noget af det mest seværdige og underholdende hockey. Jeg håber i når slutspillet i år.
I aften skal jeg se din gamle klub Herning forsøge at blive nr.1 før slutspillet.
All the best

“But when Sanchez gets going and things are going well, I think he’s a Kaepernick Red Jersey great Kaepernick Nike Jersey quarterback. His attitude is infectious. He’s a leader of that team. But when things go bad I think he tanks it. Right now I see Mark Sanchez as a front-runner, and that’s not something that you want at that quarterback position.
Hello! First of all, great job so far this season! My husband and I will be bringing our 9 year old son and 3 of his friends to the home game on Feb 23 to celebrate my son’s 9th birthday. Can’t wait to see you all in person, this will be these boy’s first hockey game! If you could hook us up with some tickets we would be forever grateful!
Frans,
If you ever want a custom music mix made for you, dont hesitate to contact me. I know those road trips and bus trips are a killer. It would be free of charge. Any artists, any length of time. All digital, Just let me know. I have been a DJ since 1985 and an Islander fan since 1979.

Hej Frans
dejligt at vi nu får (næsten) alle NHL kampe om natten her i Danmark, jeg sidder her med øjnene hængende nede ved knæene, alt godt for fremtiden, i spiller faneme godt i år, fortsæt med det.
Frans, you’re off to a great start this year. Your calmness and responsible play has helped to rebound Grabner back to form and Boyes looks good on the other side. Good luck in the swamp.
Aside from being a die hard Isles fan since 1978, I love Franzie’s game, and I love how the league under rates his abilities!
Hey Frans, I know your not responsible, but this “lockout” is totally a bunch of bull crap for the fans of the sport. Top flight players salaries are higher than ever and the owners want more of a percentage…etc
As a fan and a paying supporter, I think it’s disgusting that the “league” is more than ready to SACRIFICE a healthy chunk or the whole entire season, money will always be the root of all evil in my humble opinion.
Dear Sir
Best wishes and warmest thoughts to you!May your everyday be filled with special moment, warmth, peace and happiness,everything goes better and better in the future!
I am a chinese,and Frans Nielsen’s loyal supporter,he was,he is and will always be the best!I thank him, he taught what is strong and carry on!I believe in he!I want to get his signature, hope you can help me,thank you very much!
He is the best in my heart forever!
Good luck in the future!

Hey Frans, just want to wish u goodluck this year!……im away at college but ill be streaming everysingle game from my computer…hope you tear it up this year!
Being a Flames fan, I haven’t really watched your play. I have heard many great things about you but have never really gotten the time to actually see the things you have done. Now that I have seen your stats and some stellar plays on youtube, I am a little ashamed that I honestly hadn’t considered you as the great player that you actually are.
Your website is great and I really enjoy the fact that you also include news of you on the danish national hockey team. Keep up the good work!!
PS. Any chance you are willing to play for Calgary next year?
92122 While goals may be a very significant part of the process, if you set them too high, you may be very disappointed when you do not reach them!! personal trainer schools personal trainer san diego ca San Diego Personal Training If you follow the tips laid out here, you can expect a drop in your weight.These tips are just what you need to get started.As you have read, there are great options out there for a person suffering from hair loss.Trying to deprive yourself of a specific food when you are dieting may very well backfire?As a source of motivation, set goals that are short-termed and reward yourself when each goal is attained.Personal development will require some efforts from you, it’s not always that easy.Now that you are more informed on how to grow as an individual, you should start feeling optimistic about your personal development.
You are easily one of the best two way forwards and shootout guys in the league. Every goalie knows that backhand is coming, but you still score anyways! You’re such a great player to watch and an impact player for the Islanders. You will be a key part in their success next year. I love watching you play.
Hi, Frans! We hope to see DK doing better and better in the worlds. My mother’s parents came from Denmark to the USA 90 years ago, but we still go back to visit relatives in Herning and Kobenhavn (Hockey Shoppen!). They keep us posted on Blue Fox happenings! We used to live on LI, but now live in NJ, so we’ll have to see you when you play the Devils. We’ll wear our DK hockey jerseys! Look for us!
Hey Frans,
nice site and keep up the great work in the big leagues! If you ever would like a shirt from us, we would be honored to send you one! We are a hockey apparel company out of Minnesota called Celly Hard Apparel!
Thank you and take care!
Hej Frans ,tillykke med din gode sæson ,håber du fortsætter stilen når vi tager til Stockholm for at støtte jer . Altid godt at se Blue Fox drengene klare sig godt, når de kommer ud fortsat held og lykke med din karriere
Hej Frans,
Jeg skal til konfirmation hos en stor fan af dig, og jeg er lige nu ved at købe Islanders trøje til ham. Er der overhovedet en mulighed for at få din autograf på trøjen ??? Ved ikke om I er i DK inden VM eller ???
Vi er en gruppe på 15 danskere, der i morgen kommer og ser kampen mod Senators.
Vi glæder os meget til at se dig på isen, og vi vil naturligvis heppe ihærdigt på dig med det danske flag!
Rigtig god kamp – Vi glæder os rigtig meget!

hey frans
I’m a huge leafs fan however I an also a big fan of what you do on the ice. Great effort and i think that even though you are twenty seven you have plenty of time to develop into a bona fide star…. you can come play for the leafs anytime good luck
Hey Frans…..i am not an islanders fan……but i will admit that ur one of the best when u play. Ur one of my favorite players……oh and if u play the rangers again this season…..i hope u guys win!!! Why not play for the flyers? Ur a really good player and i hope u become the captain. Good Luck Frans!!!!
Been an Islander fan since birth! These are what we would call the lean years, however I see the light at the end of the tunnel with some high quality players signing long term deals, Frans would be one of those high quality players. (Can’t wait to see Ryan Strome here as well.)
The Islanders are very close to turning the corner and when they do they’re GOING to shock a lot of people… This is a high class organization that is going to return to greatness very soon, it may happen in a different city but it’s going to happen.
Keep up the good work Frans, you’re a very good player and I for one am glad you’re here on the Island. When this team hoists the cup again (5) yes a grown man will likely shed a tear of utter joy…
Great signing Congrats. Been a long time Islander fan (early 80s) and not many of us come from Nova Scotia Canada. I watch pretty well all your games and I can finally say after so many years I now have confidence in the Islanders. A hard push for the playoffs could get you in this year but next year if the team plays the same way you will make it. Best of luck.
Hej Frans. Endnu et tillykke med kontraktforlængelsen. Som tidligere nævnt så er det kun et spørgsmål om tid før du vinder Selke-trofæet. Er i lidt af et dilemma. Islanders ser jo ikke til at være ude af playoff billedet, men det danske landshold kan og må bare ikke undvære dig til vm. Selvom det kunne være fedt at se dig ‘performe’ på den største scene i maj/juni måned.
Mange hilsner fra en stolt dansk ishockeyfan
Been watching you since Bridgeport. Been a big fan ever since then. Bernie Cassells had you sign my Jersey after the Buffalo game.Thanks. Looking forward to my next game (vs the Rangers) on the island. I know you play extra hard against them.
Sig mig engang, er det ikke Simon`s storebror der har fået sin egen side…ser godt ud. Der er reserveret plads til dig i Herning Oldtimer når den tid kommer:-) billard, dart og BOB BOB BOB alle former for mande sport
The sweetest backhand roof ever. Dangle – Snipe – Love it. You are one of the reasons my sond and myself have seasons tkts and continue to play and coach after high school. Thanks for the inspiration
hey frans , you would think after all of these years goaltenders would catch on to your backhand , but i guess not. your a very underrated player . one of the best two way hockey players to play on the island and the league at that . good luck on a very solid career so far and best of luck to you and the isles .
Hey Frans! Great website. I always enjoy watching you play and I hope you find even more success in the second half of the season, and in the years to come!
Hi Frans. Tillykke med din karriere ikke minste som den beste dansk ishockey spiller nogensinde, men som en elite spiller på verdens plan. I played with your dad, Frits, back in the late 1970s and early 1980s. It is a lot of fun for me to watch your play because you are such a slick player and it brings back great memories of the days when I got to sit on the same bench as your Dad and watch him work his magic. Keep up the great work. Your best has yet to come. And say hi to Frits and Hanna from Kris and Gitte.
Fortsæt den gode stime du er i, fornøjelse at se hvordan det går dig…..(Ser Rangers vs Islanders på tv2sport lige nu) Du gør det sgu godt , de der US kommentatorer er vilde med dig ………….Glædelig jul…
Mange tak for the shoot out winning goal i går, Frans. Det var et særligt øjeblik for min yngste søn, Teis, og mig selv.
Fra en dansker i Minnesota.
I ‘ll write the rest in English, so everybody can understand. Thank you for the great game in Minnesota last night. I’m a native of Denmark but I have been living in Minnesota for about 18 years. My wife and I take our two sons to Wild games somewhat regularly, and we especially try to get to the games when one of the teams with Danish players come to town.
My youngest son, Teis who is a 7 year-old Mite player here in Winona, MN, has been hearing and talking about “the Danish backhand of doom” since he first saw highlights on TV and NHL.com last year. He was hoping to get to see the signature backhand move livel last night. He stood up in our section 122 seats right behind Backstrom’s goal and chanted “Fransi, Fransi” as you approached the goal–and when he saw the puck go in on the top shelf, he jumped up in celebration. Everybody around us was looking at him wondering why this little boy wearing a Wild sweater (and holding an little Islanders banner) was so ecstatic. He proudly announced to somebody who asked that number 51 is his favorite because “he is the best and from Denmark like my dad.” It was great to see him so excited. He talked about the goal all the way home (we live an hour and half’s drive from St. Paul).
Thank you for making his day. He now wants a Nielsen Islanders jersey for xmas.
I have to say I was excited too. I am from Aalborg, and when I was 15, I was one of the many Aalborg fans who made the trip to Copenhagen and Rødovre Skøjtehal, 30 years ago, in 1981 when your Dad, Frits, was captain of the AaB Ishockey team winning the Danish championship in the final game of the season. So, this was a special moment for me as well.
Hi, i’m Ricky from Philippines. I’m a great fan of you. I play for our local team here and i patterned my game on how you play. I will be celebrating my birthday next month and i would like to ask for an autographed photo of you as a gift. Since i live from the other side of the globe getting hyour autograph or meeting you in person is impossible for me to do. I hope you can grant my wish for my birthday gift.It will be a great addition for my autograph collections. Thank you very much in advance. God bless and more power.

Sorry to you north americans, I know you probably can’t understand my message, but simply had to pay tribute to “Emperor Frans”- as his nickname is in Denmark – and it sounds best in our native language
En lille hilsen, og en STOR tak for alt hvad du og dine danske kollegaer i Nordamerika gør for dansk ishockey.
Hvor er det cool at følge dine præstationer i NHL og gang på gang høre dine kollegaer, pressen og ganske almindelige fans, som mig selv, rose dig til skyerne.
At blive kåret af dine med- og modspillere til den 2. mest undervurderede, og den mest undervurderede af “The Hockey News” gør forhåbentlig underværker for din selvtillid.
Ved ikke om det kun er i lille DK der tales om dig som evt. fremtidig captain, men hvor ville det være verdensklasse, at se en dansker med et “C” på brystet blive overrakt Frank J. Selke Trophy – hvilket du ikke kan undgå i mine øjne, hvis du fortsætter din udvikling.
- Keep on playing your way, it will take very far…
gratz on the homepage as the first dansih nhl player to get that , its well deserved , hope for a good season for u and the islanders though im not a islander im a king u will within 3-5 years be in the hunt of the selke trophy
…there’s always ONE puck that just doesn’t ‘get the memo’ and goes in off a deflection, as it happened with you in the Rangers game last night! LOL Looking forward to MANY more displays of what some Islanders fans refer to as ‘The Danish Backhand of Judgment’…..your loyalty is extremely appreciated, Frans:)
hej frans
Hey Frans, just thought i’d drop in and say that you did a great job at losing to the Penguins. I mean, with all the momentum your team had going into game three you guys had victory locked down….. that is until you stepped out on the ice. GREAT JOB ISLANDERS!!!

I can not find a Frans Nielsen shirt in any store.. any help?
Frans, you’re off to a great start this year. Your calmness and responsible play has helped to rebound Grabner back to form and Boyes looks good on the other side. Good luck in the swamp.
Hi
Good game today even know you lost you played great
Welcome back! I am so happy the boys in blue and orange are back! Hope you have a great year.
Good Luck in this shortened season..bring home some W’s
Hey Frans,
Hey Frans, hope all is well.stay healthy and lets hope hockey will be played soon.!!!!!!!
Hi Matt
Aside from being a die hard Isles fan since 1978, I love Franzie’s game, and I love how the league under rates his abilities!
Hey Frans, I know your not responsible, but this “lockout” is totally a bunch of bull crap for the fans of the sport. Top flight players salaries are higher than ever and the owners want more of a percentage…etc
As a fan and a paying supporter, I think it’s disgusting that the “league” is more than ready to SACRIFICE a healthy chunk or the whole entire season, money will always be the root of all evil in my humble opinion.

It is a lot of fun for me to watch your play because you are such a slick player and it brings back great memories of the days when I got to sit on the same bench as your Dad and watch him work his magic. Keep up the great work. Your best has yet to come. And say hi to Frits and Hanna from Kris and Gitte.

Have a good Christmas.
Mange tak for the shoot out winning goal i går, Frans. Det var et særligt øjeblik for min yngste søn, Teis, og mig selv.
Fra en dansker i Minnesota.
I ‘ll write the rest in English, so everybody can understand. Thank you for the great game in Minnesota last night. I’m a native of Denmark but I have been living in Minnesota for about 18 years. My wife and I take our two sons to Wild games somewhat regularly, and we especially try to get to the games when one of the teams with Danish players come to town.
My youngest son, Teis who is a 7 year-old Mite player here in Winona, MN, has been hearing and talking about “the Danish backhand of doom” since he first saw highlights on TV and NHL.com last year. He was hoping to get to see the signature backhand move livel last night. He stood up in our section 122 seats right behind Backstrom’s goal and chanted “Fransi, Fransi” as you approached the goal–and when he saw the puck go in on the top shelf, he jumped up in celebration. Everybody around us was looking at him wondering why this little boy wearing a Wild sweater (and holding an little Islanders banner) was so ecstatic. He proudly announced to somebody who asked that number 51 is his favorite because “he is the best and from Denmark like my dad.” It was great to see him so excited. He talked about the goal all the way home (we live an hour and half’s drive from St. Paul).
Thank you for making his day. He now wants a Nielsen Islanders jersey for xmas.
I have to say I was excited too. I am from Aalborg, and when I was 15, I was one of the many Aalborg fans who made the trip to Copenhagen and Rødovre Skøjtehal, 30 years ago, in 1981 when your Dad, Frits, was captain of the AaB Ishockey team winning the Danish championship in the final game of the season. So, this was a special moment for me as well.

Hi Sir Frans,
Hi, i’m Ricky from Philippines. I’m a great fan of you. I play for our local team here and i patterned my game on how you play. I will be celebrating my birthday next month and i would like to ask for an autographed photo of you as a gift. Since i live from the other side of the globe getting hyour autograph or meeting you in person is impossible for me to do. I hope you can grant my wish for my birthday gift.It will be a great addition for my autograph collections. Thank you very much in advance. God bless and more power.

Held og lykke med sæsonen Frans! Glæder mig til at se Islanders i play-off. Du gør det satme godt derovre:-)
Sorry to you north americans, I know you probably can’t understand my message, but simply had to pay tribute to “Emperor Frans”- as his nickname is in Denmark – and it sounds best in our native language
En lille hilsen, og en STOR tak for alt hvad du og dine danske kollegaer i Nordamerika gør for dansk ishockey.
Hvor er det cool at følge dine præstationer i NHL og gang på gang høre dine kollegaer, pressen og ganske almindelige fans, som mig selv, rose dig til skyerne.
At blive kåret af dine med- og modspillere til den 2. mest undervurderede, og den mest undervurderede af “The Hockey News” gør forhåbentlig underværker for din selvtillid.
Ved ikke om det kun er i lille DK der tales om dig som evt. fremtidig captain, men hvor ville det være verdensklasse, at se en dansker med et “C” på brystet blive overrakt Frank J. Selke Trophy – hvilket du ikke kan undgå i mine øjne, hvis du fortsætter din udvikling.
- Keep on playing your way, it will take very far…
My favorite NHL’er! keep up the great work on the ice.. one of the smartest players in the league..

…there’s always ONE puck that just doesn’t ‘get the memo’ and goes in off a deflection, as it happened with you in the Rangers game last night! LOL Looking forward to MANY more displays of what some Islanders fans refer to as ‘The Danish Backhand of Judgment’…..your loyalty is extremely appreciated, Frans:)
Bring that Selke to Long Island!!!
