Detroit Red Wings forward Johan Franzen isn't going to let Gustav Nyquist forget about their former head coach.
Franzen posted the following to Instagram on Tuesday, poking fun at his younger teammate's appreciation for Mike Babcock, who left this offseason to coach the Toronto Maple Leafs:
Hey Nyquist, I know you been sad ever since your dad signed for Toronto so I had these custom bed sheets made for u so u always can be close to him #detroit #detroitredwings #babcock #nyquist #separationanxiety #nhl
Nyquist might have trouble getting to sleep with Babcock's stern expression greeting him before he even climbs in bed.
As they say: You don't don't mess with the Johan.
