Practice footage of William Nylander leaked
After missing game one of their playoff series against the Boston Bruins, it appears as though Maple Leafs star William Nylander is ready to go for game two.
There's been plenty of mystery surrounding William Nylander's game one absence, but on Monday ahead of game two in Boston, all signs are pointing towards a much needed return for Toronto.
With just one goal netted in game one, the Maple Leafs are in desperate need of an offensive boost, and after tallying 10 points in 11 playoff games a season ago, Nylander is hoping to give them that spark upon return.
Nothing has yet been confirmed by Sheldon Keefe, who continues to play his cards close to his chest, but after an optional skate on Sunday and now a return to full practice, it would be shocking if No. 88 didn't take the ice tonight for Toronto.
Projected out?
More details to come on this situation as Toronto face a must-win game two against the Boston Bruins.
