Thread: William Nylander
Trading a good player for a large collection of worse players is usually not a winning formula. Nylander is young, and on one of the best value contracts in the league.

All these guys are older, and not a single one of them is even close to as good as Nylander. We have no need for Ho-Sang, we have about 6 players that are his skill level. Mayfield is fine, but nothing special. Ross Johnston is nothing. Bailey is arguably paid correctly for his level of production last year, but he's only going to decline on the wrong side of 30.

From a possession and shot generation stand point, [url]<a href="https://hockeyviz.com/player/bailejo89/NYI/1920%5B/url%5DBailey" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">https://hockeyviz.com/player/bailejo89/NYI/1920[/url]Bailey</a> and [url]<a href="https://hockeyviz.com/player/johnsro94/NYI/1920%5B/url%5DJohnston" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">https://hockeyviz.com/player/johnsro94/NYI/1920[/url]Johnston</a> are both dragging the Islanders down?

I just don't see the point in a trade like this for Toronto.
