Brendan Shanahan on whether William Nylander’s hot start raises concern about the re-sign price: “If you’re concerned because you have players on your team playing really good hockey, you have to check yourself”

What are your thoughts on the up-and-down season by the teams so far?

Shanahan: I don’t think there has ever been as much parity in the league as far as I can remember. Beyond one or two teams at the top or one or two teams at the bottom, it is something that all teams are talking about — trying to find that consistent approach to the game.

That being said, the results have been pretty good. We want it to be better. Our record is strong right now, but we are still looking to get that entire game back.
