Has there been a single chant this year besides "Go Leafs Go!"? If you can't get up for Willy or Sammy, what the hell will it take? I'm sick of a library in the playoffs.

Willy has undoubtedly been the best Leaf this season. He is an absolute force on the ice.

Joe Bowen's calls of Nylander's 2 goals.

He's been a force but it is doubtful he has been the best leaf. Let's keep it realistic

We are.

Criminal he is not an all-star.

Incredible season so far .. Nylander's finally hitting his potential.

What great player development from the organization. Many doubted his ability to play in the dirty areas, defense, and work ethic to be a top player in the league .. He's kept progressing and hit another gear this season.

 

[LeafsNation75]

Criminal he is not an all-star.

If anyone on the Atlantic Division doesn't end up playing you got to think Nylander is the most obvious replacement.

 

[ACC1224]

Played a great couple periods for sure but he, like the rest of them, didn’t put a lot of effort in the first.

 

[BertCorbeau]

I think he's made the jump into top 10 in the league in points after tonight

Who has been better?

I just looked on nhl.com and they have him at 16th in total points.

The guy is dominant, 1st star, the best player on either team, and puts up 4 points and this is your reaction.

He’s up there for sure. Marner, nylander, the goalies have all been stellar for almost the entire season

 

[Gabriel426]

First MM showed us the fake back heel kick, then Willie scored with his head and now the alley loop pass. Can these guys just stick with making Hockey plays, lol.

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

He's the player on the team I appreciate the most. All the shit he took earlier in his career especially after his contract holdout, but look at him now. His natural talent got him to the NHL, but his work ethic made him into a superstar

 

[ACC1224]

He’s up there for sure. Marner, nylander, the goalies have all been stellar for almost the entire season

I think most take Marner for all around play all season. Nylander has been great though, easily the best season of his career

I'm happy knowing that both of them are playing for the Leafs.
