Player Discussion William Nylander

What is wrong with you bro!?

He’s been kind of off since Alex was sent down. Maybe he’s hurt? Doesn’t look as dynamic barely noticed him out there today.

They all look miserable right now. Maybe injury but who knows. They look half interested more than hurt.

Seems to be the only one who can make a pass, especially on the PP.

He's great when he wants to be, like when he is playing for a contract. One year later, the guy who was on a 120 point pace is back to an 82 point pace. It takes some kind of talent/effort to score one goal in your last 6 games when you are so talented.

Like Matty scoring one goals in nine games last year?

Every scorer goes through dry spells, but at least he's still creating chances for himself and his linemates. Eventually they will be going in again.

This is normal for Willy to take shifts, games, stretches of games off.. you know it is a regular thing when a couple of the talking heads on HNIC are brave enough to mention it on air.

The unusual part is the rest of the team being just as lazy and disengaged.

He has zero assists in his last. Mitch gets assists like taking candy from a baby. Surely Willy can get one every few games.

Which player would you pay $92m to? Willie would be last on my list.

Fair comment. How many play with elite players like 16, 34, 91 and 44 on the PP?

If you think that's an elite PP, you haven't been paying attention!

The usual Jan wall that Willie hits.
He better snaps out of it

 

[ACC1224]

Any timeline on when he’s due back?

After the 4 Nations.

They are the elite of the elite.

If someone told me the real Willie went on vacation and Alex was impersonating him for the past half dozen or so games, I'd believe it.
