While many are still trying to digest the end of a remarkably exciting season for this Toronto Maple Leafs team, many are eagerly wanting to know what the makeup of this team will look like for the start of next season.
It was a year of tremendous growth with such a young squad. The Maple Leafs took a huge jump in the standings that many hadn’t expected for another couple years. The progression of Auston Matthews, Nazem Kadri, Jake Gardiner and many others was a sweet sight for all Maple Leaf fans. However, it could be argued that William Nylander experienced the most growth in development as a player throughout the 2016/17 season.
