Red Wings’ Nyquist catches Wild’s Spurgeon with blatant, dangerous high stick

Gustav Nyquist might want to keep his phone charged.

The Detroit Red Wings forward caught Minnesota Wild defenseman Jared Spurgeon with a blatant and dangerous high stick in the first period of Sunday afternoon's game.

The incident was sparked by a cross-check delivered by Spurgeon moments prior.

Nyquist was assessed a double-minor penalty for the infraction, but could very well be hearing from the NHL's Department of Player Safety in regards to further discipline.
