One of the roster questions for the Nashville Predators heading into free agency was middle six winger. They might have just answered that by signing Gustav Nyquist.
The Predators had signed Luke Schenn and Ryan O’Reilly early on Saturday, and decided to add to it by inking Nyquist to a two-year, $6.37M contract. The move brings them down to just over $13.5M of cap space, leaving them room to make another move if they want to.
Reviews of the Predators moves so far have been iffy. Many are complaining that they will take up roster spots from the youth and do not fit what Barry Trotz has been saying he envisions the team being.
