NHL Insider Reveals William Nylanders Asking Price For His Upcoming Contract
The Toronto Maple Leafs boast a talented forward group, no denying that. But with such firepower up front, the challenge arises when it comes to divvying up the paycheck.
Matthews has inked a hefty extension, Tavares maintains an 11-million-dollar salary through next season, and Marner's pulling in nearly 11 million. In this mix, Nylander finds himself as the odd man out. Despite deserving a substantial raise for his strong performance early this season and consistent contributions since signing his contract, there might not be enough room for him in Toronto.
First Take on TSN recently featured Darren Dreger, shedding light on Nylander's contract expectations, and it seems the bar has been raised significantly.
Entering his prime at 27, Nylander has been on fire, racking up 42 points in 30 games this season, including an impressive tally of 15 goals and 27 assists.
