Nashville hunters carried forward the Gustav Nyquist in Minnesota Wilde on Saturday, in exchange for 2026 second-round drafts, the teams announced.
Nashville also has 50% of Nyquist’s salary in the deal. He is in the final season of the contract of two years, $ 6.37 million and will be an unrestricted free agent in July.
The NYQUIST was held on Saturday afternoon in anticipation of a possible trade from Nashville’s game against New York Islanders. While the 35 -year -old spent time in the top six rotation of poachers this season, he struggled to find chemistry in Nashville’s Ratold Lineup and scored just nine goals and 21 points in 57 matches compared to 75 points in 81 matches last year.
A change of scenes in returning to Minnesota-A team NYQUIST played three games after trading from Columbus in 2022-23-NYQUIST can help regain that aggressive skills. And the wild needs to be promoted. Minnesota has lost three in a row and is involved in a litni of injury issues, which still involves playing without top skaters Kiril Kapreesov, and now Joel Erich EK has been sidelined with low body injury in practice this week. Ryan Hartman is still serving eight-game suspension; He is eligible to return on 4 March.
The nyquist should slot to a middle-sixth place for the wild and help on a penalty kilt. He was fourth among the hunters in the shorthand ice time-Austed 1:20 per game-and Minnesota will tap in his kiln skills to improve its grisling, 31st rank unit.
Halmstad, Sweden, a native of Nyquist was the fourth round selection of Detroit Red Wings in 2008.
