Nystrom needs to revisit his attitude towards the offensive side of the game. You don't have to be a big scorer, but if you're going to be an NHL checker, you should at least be able to kill time in the offensive zone. It's not good enough to focus only on defense... or you end up -9 in 34 games and back in the AHL, where, as far as I'm concerned, he does not look out of place.
