Gustav Nyquist

It is tough playing for a terrible team, but Gustav Nyquist has still found a way to be a quality player.

The Detroit Red Wings are going through a rebuild so they will definitely be shopping some of their better players at the trade deadline. One of these guys is Gustav Nyquist.

Nyquist is a little older than some of the other names mentioned, but still would be a great addition to the Bruins lineup. This season the winger has 14 goals and 33 assists.

I think Nyquist would be perfect on the 2nd line. He can help set up goals for David Krejci and David Pastrnak. We have seen in the past that Krejci needs a skilled winger by his side. Having Pastrnak and Nyquist is as good as it gets.

Gustav Nyquist would be a solid veteran addition to the team that still has some quality years ahead of him.
