Maple Leafs' William Nylander: Nets lone goal on power play
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.

Maple Leafs' William Nylander: Five points in last two games
Nylander scored twice in a 4-1 win over Seattle on Thursday. He fired six shots.
Both goals came from the same office on the left side of the crease. Nylander scored early in the second period on a cross-slot pass from Morgan Rielly to put the Maple Leafs up 2-1. He then popped one in about eight minutes later on a pass from John Tavares. Nylander has five points, including three goals, and eight shots in his last two games, and 12 (eight goals, four assists) in 11 games this season. He is tied with John Tavares for the team lead in points. Nylander's heat has arrived.

Maple Leafs' William Nylander: Reunited and it feels so good
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.

Maple Leafs' William Nylander: Three-point outing Monday
Nylander recorded two even-strength goals and a power-play assist in Monday's 5-2 win over the Lightning.
Nylander went pointless in his first two games of the season, the same as Auston Matthews, but he's been on fire since then, notching five goals and seven total points over his last four appearances, including three multi-point games in that span. Nylander has scored at least 40 goals in back-to-back seasons and has recorded at least 80 points in three consecutive campaigns, so the slow start wasn't much of a concern for fantasy managers who trusted in him.

Maple Leafs' William Nylander: Nets power-play goal
Nylander recorded a power-play goal and an even-strength assist in Wednesday's 6-2 win over the Kings.
Nylander was considered a game-time decision for Wednesday's matchup after missing Tuesday's practice due to an illness, but it seems he's not feeling any effects based on his strong showing in this game. Nylander has three goals in four appearances this season and is picking things up right where he left them off after a career-best year in 2023-24, where he notched a personal-best 98 points, including reaching the 40-goal plateau for the second consecutive campaign.

Nylander was considered a game-time decision after missing Tuesday's practice due to the illness. The 28-year-old will likely return to his usual second-line role and feature on the power play. He scored his first two goals of the season in a 4-2 win over the Penguins on Saturday.

Maple Leafs' William Nylander: Game-time call Wednesday
Nylander (illness) is doing better and is set to be a game-time decision against LA on Wednesday, coach Craig Berube told David Alter of The Hockey News.
Nylander has two goals in three games this season. He's expected to play alongside Pontus Holmberg and John Tavares on the second line if Nylander is healthy Wednesday. If Nylander isn't available, then Nicholas Robertson will likely serve in a top-six capacity.

Maple Leafs' William Nylander: Two goals help lead way
Nylander scored twice in a 4-2 win over Pittsburgh on Saturday.
Nylander's first goal of the season came at even strength in the second period, and he double-dipped in the third frame with an empty-netter to seal Toronto's win. Nylander has put up two straight 40-goal seasons and is coming off a 98-point campaign in 82 regular-season contests in 2023-24. He'll be targeting his first 100-point performance this campaign.

Maple Leafs' William Nylander: Injury not considered serious
Nylander (undisclosed) avoided any serious injury with coach Craig Berube telling reporters Friday, "He'll be OK. He's fine. Nothing to worry about.", according to Mark Masters of TSN.
Nylander exited Thursday's preseason contest versus Montreal after a collision with a Canadien. The move to take Nylander out of the contest seems more precautionary now after hearing Berube's quotes, which is a great sign for the team and player. Nylander's first year of his new eight-year deal kicks in this season. The 28-year-old had a career-high 98 points in 82 regular-season contests with Toronto in 2023-24.

Maple Leafs' William Nylander: Leaves game Thursday
Nylander sustained an undisclosed injury in the first period of Thursday's preseason game versus the Canadiens and won't return for precautionary reasons.
Nylander collided with a Canadien and appeared to hit his head, though the Maple Leafs did not specify the nature of the 28-year-old's injury. Given the precautionary label, it doesn't appear this will be a long-term concern. Nylander has gotten a look at center this preseason after spending the bulk of his NHL career as a winger.

Maple Leafs' William Nylander: Starting camp at center
Nylander will start training camp at center, reports Arun Srinivasan of The Leafs Nation on Wednesday
No surprise here, really. New coach Craig Berube knows that John Tavares will be best served on the third line, and Nylander is a talented player who's willing to take on any challenge. The Leafs have tried Nylander down the middle before, and the experiments never lasted more than a few games because of Willie's defensive challenges. If successful, the Leafs would be able to spread its offense across three lines, making it even harder for opponents to defend their elite talent.

Maple Leafs' William Nylander: Nets goal in Game 7 loss
Nylander scored a goal on five shots, blocked three shots and added two hits in Saturday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Bruins in Game 7.
Nylander missed three games to begin the series due to a migraine issue, but he showed up late in the first round with three goals over the final two contests. The winger added 18 shots on net, six hits and five blocked shots. While another first-round exit is unfortunate for Toronto, Nylander's future with the team was confirmed when he signed an eight-year contract extension in January. The 28-year-old produced his second straight 40-goal season and finished with a career-high 98 points in 82 regular-season contests, so he should be a solid choice for fantasy managers in the early rounds of drafts in the fall.
