Alex Nylander has only played 84 games in the NHL, and there is still time for him to break out into a high-scoring NHL player with the Chicago Blackhawks.

Alexander Nylander, who was the eighth overall pick in the 2016 NHL draft, has not really found his edge in the NHL. The Chicago Blackhawks traded for him last offseason, and in 65 games this past season, Nylander put up 10 goals and 16 assists.

While Nylander was spotty throughout this past season, he did provide some stretches of good hockey.
