Just cant stop this guy.
So the Leafs are better with Nylander on the ice than when he isn't. What a surprise. You would think that would be far from the case the way certain individuals talk about him here...Outside of some weird numbers for our fourth line in their limited minutes, Willy by the numbers among our forwards:
- Leads us in CF% (shot share)
- Second in xGF% (shot share adjusted for quality)
- Leads us in GF% (goal differential)
- Leads us in SCF% (scoring chances)
- Second in HDCF% (high danger scoring chances)
- Leads us in individual high danger scoring chances.
- Second in individual expected goals for.
- Second of all Leafs forwards in 5-on-5 production.
- Tied for 15th in the league in 5-on-5 production.
- Tied for 12th in the league in primary points.
He's also somehow one of the most criticized Leafs on twitter and various other fan outlets, along with Matthews who is up there with him or better in these areas.
Of course people will tell me to actually watch the games, which is exactly what they did when they were adamant that Nylander hadn't been in the slot all season.
Thought he was decent last night. Good to see him go to the net for his goal.
Didn't like his effort on the Barzal goal.
pretty much how I saw last night's performance.Thought he was decent last night. Good to see him go to the net for his goal.

Yeah I don't know why Nylander is getting blame for that. He was the one who got back and stole the puck back, but he was in an awkward position with the Isles player right next to him, and turned the puck over.i keep seeing this but on that play Johnsson made a terrible pass then Nylander won it back and in doing so the puck got stuck between his legs and taken away again and to top it all off Rielly (i think it was rielly) totally missed his assignment on the backdoor.
There are many many examples of Nylander's bad effort in the Dzone i just dont think this is one of them.
There will be people that say that these numbers prove he's been "pretty good" this year, when they actually prove he's been great.
He'll get no significant credit from the former while they wait for him to have a short slump or miss one out of 10 backchecks.

#illuminatiThis thread seems to be slowing down since he's been en fuego, and I'm sure it'll go back to normal the moment he has a bad game; but I just wanted to post in here because we've been here since the beginning and I'm proud of you guys.
You know who you are.
He is in the offensive end .This guy is dominating.
On pace for 33 goals, 66 points and growing.
Gotta trade this guy though
