Not as much this year from what I can see. He's been winning some puck battles.bill nylander, decent player, but a lazy big floater imho.
That goal that he set up Rielly for a couple of games ago was a special effort.

Seems like every team is a tough match.Sabres should be a tough match tonight.
I wouldn't have predicted that...Sabres should be a tough match tonight.
-2 again tonite, but hey, he got an assist. thats all that matters, good for him.Don't know where this floater tag comes from.
Probably same place that tags him as easy to knock down or doesn't go to the front of the net.
Excerpt from The Athletic:
"His seven credited takeaways are tied for second on the Leafs with Marner (who led the league in that department last year) behind only Matthews’ 12. Relevantly, he’s also turning the puck over when he has it much less than Matthews and Marner are, with impressively just one giveaway so far this season. The latter stat is a pretty clear indicator of good puck management/protection for a player who has it as much as he does"
Reaves, Domi, Bertuzzi, Klingberg, Gregor, of those new signings, Gregor has been the best so far. I think Burtuzzi hates Toronto and is secretly playing for the Bruins (double agent).Sabres made Leafs look stupid tonight. Overhaul your defense and get a goalie. Good God!!
You finally got a chance to find a game. Good for you.-2 again tonite, but hey, he got an assist. thats all that matters, good for him.
analytics... thats all you and 90 percent on this thread care about. i get it, you think bill nylander is the next george ferguson. nothing wrong with cheering for your team, but at least be transparent and see it from both sides. the marchand hit was a hockey play nothing more, unfortunate liligren got hurt, but liligren did initiate contact did he not? hardest hit all night Pasternak wall papering reilly into the boards in the first period, didnt see tuff guy reeves chase him down and throttle him. if reeves wants to go next time they meet, trent frederic will be happy to accomodate. mr douglas and a couple of others on this thread, at least make valid points, all you other so called leaf fans, can go piss up a rope. sorry for the long rant, CHEERSDon't know where this floater tag comes from.

George Ferguson had great hair and so does Nylander. Too bad they wear helmets nowadays.analytics... thats all you and 90 percent on this thread care about. i get it, you think bill nylander is the next george ferguson.
well said!George Ferguson had great hair and so does Nylander. Too bad they wear helmets nowadays.
do you drive to work, or take your lunch.Matthews 11 goals in 11 games ... Leafs need to trade him for a bag of pucks cause you know he has too many scoreless games.
I think what be of the greatest benefit to the Leaf fan base would be a series of cannabis-consumption lounges scattered around the concourse - with a truck-load of free sample material.Why is nobody talking about the change of caterers and the potential new food options.
