Thread: Nylander for Laine
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TohnJavares</b></div><div>Nylander has shown it all boils down to effort with him. When he played with Matthews he appeared to only do one thing - look for Matthews stick regardless of opportunity in front of him. It seems he has upped his aggression and his hockey iq by jumping on rebounds more often. I strongly believe this is due to his play with Tavares and nothing else.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LeafsFanForSomeReason</b></div><div>Man, I'm sorry, but you are way, <em>way</em> off on this. Nylander led the league in net-front goals last year and not for the reason you say. He got the vast majority of those goals by parking his ass in front of the net or by taking the puck there himself.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JaredOfLondon</b></div><div>nah, see i did watch the games, and most of his goals came from rebounds that he was able to get because he was....hanging around the net! if he was on the perimiter than he wouldnt be able to get the rebounds near as well. But then i watch the games so i'd know that.</div></div>

Agree to disagree guys. I see a soft player with a high hockey IQ as you say <a href="/users/tohnjavares" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@tohnjavares</a> but nothing more. All things aside I would still take him any day over Laine.

Thread: Leaf fans be like
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SidTheKid99</b></div><div>So Keefe has praised Rielly for matching up against McDavid, where in that case it is high off the glass and make a change real quick, or praised him for getting his ankles absolutely stolen?</div></div>

We all know the play you're referring to. But in fairness he did the exact same thing to Muzzin earlier this year. Rielly is under a lot of scrutiny as he is the Leafs #1 Defenseman. That is a reality for any team. Rielly will also have an agent trying to negotiate for top dollar. That is an agents job. So yes I'm sure the dollar figure of 8 Million has been thrown out. But at this point its meaningless. I can see Rielly staying for around the same or less that Krug signed for in our flat cap world. Those calling for him to play LW have no idea about the game of hockey.
