By the Numbers: Gustav Nyquist

By the Numbers will highlight the Red Wings' on-ice accomplishments in the 2017-18 season. Each week during the offseason, By the Numbers will profile a different player on the team, focusing on his statistical highs. This week we focus on forward Gustav Nyquist.

With just one year remaining on his four-year, $19 million contract, Gustav Nyquist became the subject of trade rumors before the trade deadline.
However, it was Tomas Tatar that ended up getting moved to the Vegas Golden Knights while Nyquist remained in Detroit.
Nyquist topped the 20-goal mark for the third time in his career while playing primarily on a line with captain Henrik Zetterberg and Tyler Bertuzzi.
Coach Jeff Blashill praised Nyquist all season for his consistent, relentless play.
After the season, Nyquist went to the IIHF World Championship in Denmark and earned a gold medal with Team Sweden.
82 -- Nyquist was one of three Red Wings to play in all 82 regular-season games this season. He joined Zetterberg and Dylan Larkin in that accomplishment. It's the third time in Nyquist's career playing all 82 games. He also did so in 2014-15 and 2015-16.
