Kevin McGran of the Toronto Star: Contract talks between the Toronto Maple Leafs and William Nylander have been kept quiet.
It is believed that Nylander could get an extension close to David Pastrnak’s $6.66 million per season.
Kevin McGran of the Toronto Star: If Nylander misses any time at training camp, it allows a young player to possibly move up the depth chart – Kasperi Kapanen wouldn’t mind a shot on the first line.
Comparables for Nylander have him making over $6 million, but the bigger question may be if it’s short- or long-term.
