After 200 games, who exactly is the forward that has played what may appear to be his final game with the Columbus Blue Jackets?

Pending unrestricted left winger and current alternate captain, wearing number 14, Gustav Nyquist.

Originally from Sweeden, the former fourth round draft choice got his NHL debut out of the Ken Holland regime of the Detroit Red Wings. A 2008 draft pick, he remained Sweeden until the 2010-11 season, thus joining the Grand Rapids Griffins.

First, he is an alumni with the University of Maine averaging over a point per game over three years on North American ice.

He spent parts of 4 seasons with Grand Rapids, while also spending 4 full seasons with the Detroit Red Wings before being a rental asset for the San Jose Sharks, being part of the runner up team to the eventual champion Blues

In 200 games as a member of the Columbus Blue Jackets, he has 117 points.

What do you happening in the future of Gustav Nyquist?
