Willy should be wearing a letter for this team moving forward. Whether it the ‘A’ or ‘C’. Regardless of what your “uncle” says about him, he consistently shows up in the playoffs and is one of the few guys who really can handle the Toronto media well.

I've never thought of Willy as Captain material. But now that you put it that way, I can see it.

Nylander is the most consistent leaf in the playoffs. He shows up, gets points, but more importantly he gets clutch goals. He is also becoming a leader. Too bad he wasn't available at the start of the series. Despite criticism of being weak in the corners, he's a 50 goal scorer next year and a 100 pt man. Best performing Leaf in the playoffs every year. He is the future.

Anyone who's had 24hr+ migraines knows how fucking brutal they are. Came back from blindness and lead the team in scoring.

I do appreciate that nylander, as much as he can with the media, is fairly transparent, you can kind of glean the mood of the group.

I love this guy.

Willy, you were one of the best players this season, and post-season for the Leafs. Don't be hard on yourself - you can't do it all on your own. Like other people have commented here, he deserves to either have the C or an A on his jersey next season. Playing through or just after ocular migraines really is no joke and this guy deserves a lot of praise for his consistent ability to lead by example and show up when it counts.

William Nylander is a straight talking stand up customer. The real deal.

Styilin'

Matthews, Nylander, Knies and Woll are the new core of this team going forward in my opinion. Moe will be sticking around too, but we need to take the extra cap we get from JT, Marner and whatever else we can get to invest in better D, Goaltending and a few power forwards. Im not against the idea of resigning JT for cheap and have him play a lesser roll on the team, maybe give the C to Matthews or Rielly and JT wears the A and is a second-third line center. If we can get a few more C with the cap room we get, maybe move JT to the wing. Just a few thoughts. Sucks about the failure of this team, but it needs a new look! Go Leafs Go

A Leafs fan for many years. One thing for certain is these core guys sure know how to LOSE over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again. Time for them to start partying

Willy not even being aware the leafs never generate offense in the playoffs is concerning lol

Damn. I've never seen Willy like this.

When counts Willy steps up. why keep asking the pass, move on

2:59 willy, you guys can look at the highlights and see other teams scoring many goals. Colorado beet the best goalie this year 5 goals each game. More playoff tough bill from another leaf.

Some players need to have a oh fuck I might lose my job moment. Some need to be praised but all need to smarten the fuck up put some emotion in the game an make it look like you wanna win

Teams change all the time it’s the nature of the business… a player got emotional about Bert leaving his last team… you no longer get to see your best friends every day it would suck but it happens 🤷🏼‍♀️

0:22 willy says I didn’t even have a chance to think on the OT goal and it’s a tough goal. What’s tough about it, did someone lift the ice rink at the bruin’s end. This is why a real defensive structure with consistently the same players can, by practice, make the defending automatic without having to think and then react. 4 players beaten by two players on a dump-in.

So many stupid questions,the media is doing it’s best to destroy this team, boston was lucky to win game seven , pick up a couple of big ass defense men and they be back next year.

Excuses after excuses as top heavy will loose and especially watching Nylander coasting as if he was pushed from centre ice flat footed and rearing two total hip replacements. Non winning player here. Another example of hustling to the bank to cash the cheques after each game, being happy and complacent in being mediocre at best, along with marner , Tavares , Nylander stands with all four just like Mount Rushmore. A non motivated coach to excite these players starting the ot. A goalie who can’t play the puck with no confidence. A Brendan shanahan escaping from the spotlight, for years. Unscathed. And if you believe trevliving can fix this , good luck. Look into Calgary at the mess he made. I suspect 6-7 major changes need done here. Right from executive through to that fourth line

The group needs works, but that's for next season, could've lost in round 3. lol
