Yes, there’s a third rookie on the Leafs roster that’s scored a fair amount of goals this year. It’s 17 in case you were wondering. Like Auston Matthews and Mitchell Marner, some of William Nylander’s goals have been stunning. What’s even more impressive with his game is that he is already a superstar at carrying the puck.
Watching Willie with the puck is one of the most beautiful sights I have ever seen as a Leafs fan. We have to give Mike Babcock some credit for this. What do you mean, Andrew? Well, he coaches Nylander and it’s obvious that he’s put a lot of trust and faith into his play.
