William Nylander is changing his jersey number to one 88 times luckier

Making the switch ... what’s old is new again #88

I’ve got you covered Leafs Nation, go to @realsportstoronto to have your jersey recrested on me. pic.twitter.com/gQWHZVxQMo— William Nylander (@wmnylander) July 15, 2019

If only he could turn back time on the hair, too, but never mind that. If you know that shooting is partly luck, then you know William Nylander had no good luck on the Leafs last year and lots of it for Sweden at the world championships.

If you believe in lucky numbers, you’ll know why he’s making the switch.
