Red Wings recall Gustav Nyquist for Tuesday
Gustav Nyquist - W - Detroit Red Wings
Jan. 22, 2013 - 12:40 PM ET

The Detroit Red Wings recalled Gustav Nyquist to take Mikael Samuelsson's (groin) place Tuesday night.

Nyquist had seven points in 18 games last season for the Wings, but didn't make Detroit out of camp this season. Coach Mike Babcock said he expects Nyquist to skate on a line with Valtteri Filppula and Johan Franzen, as well as get some time on the power play. If he sticks, Nyquist could be worth a look, but we would leave him on the waiver wire until then.
