Nylander produced an even-strength goal and a power-play assist in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Capitals. Both points came in the final five minutes of the third period as the Maple Leafs rallied from a 3-1 deficit. Nylander has delivered five multi-point performances in the last nine games, and on the season he's piled up an impressive 12 goals and 20 points in 18 contests as he hunts for his third straight 40-goal campaign.

Nylander scored a goal and added an assist in a 4-1 win over the Canadiens on Saturday. He went coast-to-coast on the man advantage to score early in the second period. Nylander is on a four-game point streak, with all his points (three goals, three assists) coming on Toronto power plays. His 20.4 shooting percentage remains bloated well above his 12.6 career mark, so a goal regression is likely, but Nylander is still poised for his third straight 40-goal season.

Nylander had a goal and an assist in a 4-0 win over Boston on Tuesday. Snipers get lucky, and that was the case with Nylander, who wired a shot from along the goal line near the left corner that went off defender Brandon Carlo's leg at the top of the crease and past Jeremy Swayman. The goal was Nylander's 10th of the season, a tally that temporarily moves him into a multi-player tie for the NHL lead. Willie's 22.2 shooting percentage is nearly double his career mark of 12.6, so expect his sniping to slow. But enjoy the ride right now.

Nylander scored a power-play goal on three shots in Sunday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Wild. Nylander has found his goal-scoring touch again with four tallies over his last four contests. This was his first power-play point since Oct. 21. The 28-year-old forward has nine goals, four assists, three power-play points, 42 shots on net and a plus-3 rating over 13 games this season. A point-per-game pace is the minimum expectation for Nylander as part of the Maple Leafs' productive top six.

Nylander had a goal and two assists in a 6-4 win over the Jets on Monday. Toronto head coach Craig Berube shuffled lines and power-play units, and he reunited Willie with John Tavares at 5-on-5. Max Pacioretty joined them and the results were immediate. Together, they produced four goals and five assists. Nylander had gone three games without a point, but this outburst gives him 10 points, including six goals, in 10 games. The reunion tour is a great thing for the Leafs and fantasy managers alike.
