Nyquist (rest) will play Saturday versus the Blue Jackets, Nick Kieser of 102.5 ESPN Nashville reports.
Nyquist will get a rest day Friday and miss the game in Chicago, Zach Gilchriest of the Predators' official site reports.
The Swedish winger is in his 30s but still has the skating and offensive skills that attracted NHL teams more than a decade ago. He is a smart, talented playmaker whose game away from the puck has improved over the years. He makes the kind of little plays that fans miss but coaches love. A lack of size and strength have always been his biggest issues, so playing with bigger linemates is a good idea.
Long Range Potential: Mature two-way winger.
