13. Gustav Nyquist/GNyquist

Greatest hockey memory is scoring an overtime goal in a youth hockey championship game
Hockey nicknames are Gus and Goose
Also speaks Swedish
Favorite food is steak…Favorite TV show is Entourage…Favorite author is Stieg Larsson…Roots for the University of Maine 

Except Gus = Goose… his name isn’t pronounced Gus-tav, right? Hence when you spell out Gus as his nickname, you say it like Goose. Which is why I always got frustrated with him.  He’d pronounce it the same way, either way it’s spelled.
