Maple Leafs' William Nylander: Fuels offense in Wednesday's win
Nylander scored a power-play goal and added an even-strength assist in Wednesday's 3-0 win over the Golden Knights.
After setting up Fraser Minten for the game's opening goal in the first period, Nylander wired home a tally of his own early in the third. The 28-year-old has six multi-point performances in the last 11 contests, piling up eight goals and 15 points over that stretch. Nylander fell just short of his first career 100-point season in 2023-24 and has scored 40 goals in back-to-back campaigns, and both marks are very much in play for him this season.

Maple Leafs' William Nylander: Two-point effort Wednesday
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.

Maple Leafs' William Nylander: PP sparks four-game point spree
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.

Maple Leafs' William Nylander: Tied for NHL lead in goals
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.

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.

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: 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.
