Gustav Nyquist deal proves to be final move for Red Wings as trade deadline passes

Detroit — The final hours leading to the Monday deadline for trades in the NHL were quiet for Red Wings general manager Ken Holland.

Having traded Gustav Nyquist to San Jose in the wee hours Monday morning, and Nick Jensen to Washington on Friday afternoon, the Wings were silent Monday.

Prospective unrestricted free agents such as goaltender Jimmy Howard, defenseman Niklas Kronwall and forward Thomas Vanek, along with players such as forward Luke Glendening and defenseman Trevor Daley, all of whom have been speculated as potential trade bait — stayed put.
