Bjugstad faced yet another season with injuries. Injuries have always been Nick’s issue throughout his career thus far. Unfortunately, these setbacks that he’s faced have really prevented him from playing his game. His game, that would be driving hard to the net while causing trouble down in the offensive zone against his opponents. This is the type of Nick we need back.
Last couple of seasons for Bjugstad have been rough. He just can’t seem to stay away from the injury bug. Last year in pre-season, big Nick broke his hand when driving to the net.
