Willy is putting on a clinic this year with 8 goals in his first 11 games under a new coach and attempting to validate his new +$11 mil contract.

He is currently on pace for 60 goals. :clap:

Here is currently tied for 5th in overall goal scoring just 1 goal behind Kucherov the top RW in the game.

He is asking Berube for more opportunity and more playing time in the process.

Following the game, Berube was asked about Nylander's performance and his desire to play more minutes.

"Well, Willy has played good hockey for us this year. I don't have a problem with his game. Ice time is ice time. I try to use my bench as best I can. I think everybody is important. I try to manage the bench that way. People have roles. I use them in those roles. Willy played a good game tonight. The line was really good for us again."

I'd hope and expect he'll end up with more than 89 points by season end.

Willy needs more minutes and Marner needs less, what could we do..

Priority for Willy is 5 on 5, Marner needs to pk and protect leads..

Tough one

Marners team is complaining he’s playing too much is that what dreger said? I think Marner playing 4 minutes more than him is insane regardless of what lines you play on cause I know marners not averaging 4 minutes on the pk

The difference between marner and Nylander is like 49 sec at ES like late in the game where Marner will for sure play more than Nylander to protect a lead or whatever... The rest is basically on PK...
