I tend to think a first for Nyquist is almost under market value just because of the Columbus and Ottawa trade. In all likelihood that was a minus-2 in the top 5 forward market because Columbus was thought to be a seller, and ended up being a dark horse buyer.
Think about the teams linked to the forward market this year...Winnipeg, Nashville, Boston, Dallas, New York Islanders. I imagine that at the very lease two of them end up making a move, and Nyquist, in my eyes, is one of the two best options left. I could see multiple bidding wars taking place without a doubt.
