Phil can’t hear you with his Stanley cup rings in his ears.
Hits are so overrated
Concerning Alex….at 26 he is a still learning to be a professional. Some take longer and for some it just never clicks.
Hopefully being around his brother all yr will help.
It’s really a low risk signing.
26 is about the now or never age for a forward. D can break out in the late 20s.

To be fair, Willy is a "more dynamic and powerful skater" than most NHLers.

Verhaeghe came up at a time when he could have been an OHL darkhorse a la Connor Brownn or Josh Leivo. Just clicked way later than anyone would have guessed but throwing him out so early was also pointless by Lou Lamoriello.

Bobby McMann kinda broke out with a good month and a half this past year and he’s 2 years younger than Alex Nylander. All it takes is another good stretch like his CBJ run and we could see him gain some momentum.

If he was good defensively he would have an NHL contract.I would be happy for 20 goals and being good defensively on the 3rd line

If he does it's a great indicator he's doing something right in the NHL.Does A. Nylander get Boo'd?

Leafs have recent examples of late charging players, including Bunting and Zach. McMann is a maybe. And everyone's favorite defender ...
who was still a NHL player.

I hope he earns an NHL contract with the Leafs out of training camp. He demonstrated the ability to be effective at the NHL level last season.

Can give you a preseason NHL scouting report. Looked like he suffers from analysis paralysis. He is scare to make a mistake looks hesitant. It's why he sucked.
He needs to play freely in his mind. Maybe it will work in the NHL then.
5 goal in his AHL stint is leading the team which is good.

Bruins are so much better on the wall, it's actually laughable how weak the Leafs play

Nylander is a bit of a floater and pretty useless 5 on 5, most of his success is coming on the powerplay. I don't see where he fits on the leafs roster, he doesn't have the defensive ability, edge or the motor to play in the bottom six. I would love to be wrong but I just don't see him getting a contract here.

He fits in on the powerplay. You answered your own question. Reason being, our PP sucks.
