Gustav Nyquist and his Columbus Blue Jackets teammates are facing the Toronto Maple Leafs in the NHL play-in round.
Way back in October, way before the pandemic, when Nyquist was still new with the Blue Jackets, Nyquist set a minor tone for the Columbus season with a game-winning penalty-shot goal in Toronto.
It was only Nyquist’s second career penalty shot — he missed on a 2014 attempt with the Red Wings against the New York Rangers — but it was the first Nyquist converted.
