Brad Treliving on signing William Nylander to a $92 million eight-year contract extension: “When he’s at his best, there are very few better than him in the league”

What does it mean to have William Nylander committed to Toronto for eight more years?

Treliving: I think it is important. I said it when I first got here. These are some really good players. They are hard to get. They are hard to keep. When you have them, you try to hold onto them.

I think it is a good day for us — a real good day for us — to get him signed. He is a top player who is — I believe — just entering the prime of his career.
