not if he is sick

 

[YoSoyLalo]

He could be sick.

 

[Unfriendly Ghost]

The Wings asked him for a list of teams he'd waive for. That was either yesterday or the day before.

Diarrhea!

 

[93gilmour93]

Hahaha. He's "sick". Okie Dokie

 

[780il]

Maybe he's just sick.....

Nielsen sat out yesterday with the flu. Nyq could have caught it from him.

Like I said in the other thread, Nyquist has only missed 6 games since becoming an NHL regular 6 years ago, and they all came in 1 season from 1 injury in 16-17.

There was also speculation that Nielsen wasn't actually sick because he took some hard hits against Ottawa the game before.

 

[hockeykicker]

well i mean eklund said caps were going hard after him and then a few hours later it was reported that wings asked him if he would waive soooooo

 

[BStinson]

Probably just “sick” of losing so much!

 

[Pens x]

Hopefully for his sake he can get out of Detroit tonight.

The way he says that is hilarious. "Gus Nyquist is out today with... uh... illness."

He's not even trying. And then that little smirk.

I wasn't thinking much of it until seeing the way Blashil reacted when asked

He was actually suspended for spearing. Those are the only games he has missed that I remember.

I think the Detroit room does have the flu though.

If they are close on something, he really should sit anyway.

There was no smirk and he was just talking. Way to read wayyyy to into nothing.

Watch again. You're clearly an amateur smirkspotter.

He fought a smirk but it wasn’t until a few seconds after the initial answer.

You're right. For some reason I was thinking the spearing happened in the playoffs, but I think I was confusing that with Kronwall's lone game playoff suspension.

 

[Oberyn]

I'm Nyquist's doctor and he is out with a cold

 

[Reddwit]

If I'm not mistaken, it sounded like HSJ's voice asking Blash if Nyquist's illness was the same as Nielsen's, to which he says "....my understanding its [sic] a little bit different." Then he looks down like he's trying to avoid smiling and when he looks up he's smirking, lol. Can anybody hear it clearly?

Doesn't mean he'll definitely get traded but it could totally be preventative measures for a pending trade. Tempers flared a bit yesterday in Philly and Nyquist himself got in a rare spat (with Konecny). They're playing Philly again tonight.
