I give him a C+ for the series. Couple early moments in the series, but his line had to be sheltered they were so bad defensively and eventually mixed up. He was 100 feet of desire, I was really disappointed in his passive defensive play in our zone. All the analysts saw it too, even some guys who normally sing his praises. Star players with his talent will always pot a goal, make a rush, have moments, but I don’t excuse garbage D and for me he was easily our worst forward in that regard. Here’s hoping he finds that form he had mid season, that was the best Nylander I’ve seen, and I note never a criticism, because he was hustling everywhere. We need this guy, new series, new possibilities.
