James Mirtle of The Athletic: There isn’t much coming out lately between the Toronto Maple Leafs or William Nylander‘s camp.
Maple Leafs GM Kyle Dubas has met with some teams including the Minnesota Wild. The Wild could use some skill up front and have some defensemen that might interest the Leafs. Jared Spurgeon could be one Wild defenseman of interest, but more pieces would have to be involved.
Some believe that Dubas is just gauging options and seeing how teams value his players and prospects.
If Nylander’s camp is holding firm at around $8 million per season on a long-term deal, it might scare off any potentially interested teams.
