Gustav Nyquist dismisses the notion that he's trying to make up for the loss of Anthony Mantha. What's undeniable is that Nyquist has gotten hot for a team lacking in consistent offensive threats.

The Detroit Red Wings' right wing has five goals and five assists over the last six games, including a goal and two assists in a 5-4 overtime win at Toronto on Thursday.
