This is not true actually. From January to April last season he was a near point-per-game player on a team that was well below .500
How has he looked over a span of 3 years?

I agree Nylander would be tremendous on this teamA guy like Nylander would actually be perfect for this squad. Right shot RW/C. If you play him at C, you can run three pairs (Marchand/Bergeron/X, X/Nylander/Pasta, DeBrusk/Krejci/X). And you can throw Moore at RD and bring up Vaak in the short term if Carlo is the primary piece back. In NHL 2019 I make that trade every time.
But, those two teams are not trading. Especially not such big pieces.
Chara will be fine his skating and cardio out there look good his positioning and decision/making actually cost him.
Vaakanainen floor is second pair his likely ceiling is ‘first fair LHD sent from hockey heaven to play with Charlie McAvoy’
The Bruins left side in the organization is phenomenal
is this my craziest trade proposal ever?
HNIC headlines saying Josh Anderson isn't happy in CBJ, dropped to the 4th line and not pleased.

Toronto in on Anderson
Panaren threaten to bolt after year
It would take balls but Toronto trades Nylander to Columbus who is the skill guy who replaces Paneran long term
Toronto could get Panaren for year and Josh Anderson long term
Works for their Cap and makes the Leafs insane up front
Or Nylander for 2 London Knights - Josh Anderson and Liam Foundy
I would absolutely do the first one on both teams but if Columbus want at least a 2 if Leafs win Cup
I agree he’s perfect for us and with Wagner, Acciari, and Kuraly gives the Bruins four guys that could change a game with physicalityJosh Anderson is just what the Bruins need up front. A "Mini Neely" so to say. He has the ability to put up twenty goals and go with anyone. If he's available, I sure hope Sweeney goes after him hard.
As far as the leafs deal it makes a ton of sense on the leafs side but I think Kekalainen will demand a bit more, giving the possibility Panarin could end up resigning in Toronto and Anderson just isn't a throw in type of player. Perhaps the Leafs may have too add some picks as well as a conditional 1st if Panarin resigns and like you said win the Cup. With that being said I sure the Blankty,Blank Blank hope nothing like that happens. After all Anderson was born too be a Bruin.
Ha ha definitelySpeaking purely about info that is out there:
Lots of talk out there about an offer sheet and those in the media are saying it is confirmed by their sources. What is scaring them away is making an offer the Leafs can't match, but it all comes back to losing 4 first round draft picks and it's not worth it for "this" player. (Nylander)
Word is that the Leafs have turned their attention to Matthews and to get it done before Nylander and before the price skyrockets. Unfortunately for the Leafs, it already has. Word is Matthews is seeking the same percentage of the cap as McDavid, which would push Matthews above McDavid money.
Some think that will help teams with an offer sheet - one that the Leafs couldn't match - and bring down the compensation costs and put them in a bind to extend Mitch Marner.
I don't believe that is the case. The Leafs have $30 million in cap space for next year and if they get the 3 for $30 million or less, they have the tag space to extend all 3 today.
Nylander seems like the perfect player to throw an offer sheet at. But not worth the cost. And there are really only 8 teams that can take on the cap hit.
Via trade or offer sheet, I don't see how the Bruins could manage it.
Anderson is exactly the type of player they should be looking for. Always like him (right @DKH ).

Poor Shanahan. None of the kids buying his take one for the team speech.
Looking back it seems he was pretty well compensate at the time for a guy ‘taking one for the team.’ What a bunch of crap.
Pretty good read on this:
Overall, Shanahan should really have kept his comments private, or at the very least think them through further before speaking to the media. Regardless, it will be interesting to see how far Nylander is prepared to go with his position, as he is now losing money every day he remains unsigned.
