After signing Tomas Tatar to a four-year, $21.2 million deal on Friday, the Red Wings roster is almost set. However, with just under $1 million in cap space (after placing Johan Franzen on long-term injured reserve) and two roster spots to fill, the Red Wings have a big decision on their hands on how to clear space. One name that has come up as a possible trade target is Gustav Nyquist.



Nyquist and Tatar have been linked together since they hit the NHL during the 2013-2014 season. They’ve been grouped together in discussions of trade targets, on-ice chemistry, and in evaluations of performance. In fact, some fans have gone as far as to say that the two players are too similar to keep on the same team.



The question then becomes, how similar are Tatar and Nyquist? Is one more valuable to the team than the other?
