William Nylander has been the talk of the NHL over the past few days after missing the first game of the playoffs, and now we know what happened.
The Toronto Maple Leafs started their 2024 Stanley Cup Playoff run in the worst way possible with a 5-1 defeat to the Boston Bruins, and it's safe to say that both teams felt the absence of William Nylander. While Head Coach Sheldon Keefe is keeping the details under wraps, a reporter has seemingly uncovered the details of exactly what happened to the young star.🚨BREAKING: Okay Folks, here's what I'm hearing per #sources regarding #88 Willy Styles Nylander. It is believed to be an upper body ailment that he's dealing with as a result of a hit taken in game 82. Not going to get into specifics or pretend to guess the full extent of the injury but obviously it kept him out of game #1 and very well could be the same for game #2. Good news is, his chin was skating at the morning twirl in a regular sweater at The TD Bank Garden. #LeafsForever fans we'll see if he suits up tonight but as TO media reported earlier .. he was taking part of the scratches skate. Which leads me to think he isn't going tonight. Again, let's see how the afternoon progresses for the high flying Swede.
Nylander took in practice on Monday with the hopes of making a push to return for game two, but nothing is guaranteed at this point as he looks to follow up a stellar 2023 playoff run by helping the Maple Leafs deep in their chase for the Stanley Cup.
