How much did he want to play there though?

The Leafs should have picked up Karlsson, His 3 assists and -5 would have been great addition to the already crappy defense.

Imagine, he wants 11+ million next year..

I would expect there to be a bit of an adjustment period for him. SJ also has another couple top D, so he is not the only one like he was in Ottawa.

He still put up a boatload of points last year, despite not being 100%.

He's still one of -- if not the -- best defenseman of his generation brah.

I wouldn't pay him 11 million for any term, and that is what he is looking for. Brah..?

So, you would think his numbers would reflect the great new team he has gone too.

Nope.

Imagine a Russian wanting to win in Russia. Shocking.

Things have changed while you've been gone bix. Everybody wants to win in Russia, Nylander is expendable while simultaneously being worth a top pairing d-man in trade, and Martin Marincin plays in the NHL.

Ummm, its been 6 games. New team, new system, new home, not the number 1.
Lets be realistic.

No, cause... Just don't talk to me.

How much did he want to play there though?
- gravyface

A lot, because he needed a ton of money to pay for his family who were in huge debt after (I think it was his grandmother) needed experimental surgery.

No, cause... Just don't talk to me.

If my memory serves my correct (admittedly it usually doesnt), didnt he have off ice issues and was asking too much per year? More than teams wanted to pay?

I guess after 6 games we can come to conclusions like that

So that means Rielly is better than Bobby Orr

Isn't this what the media is saying about Nylander right now? Or what Peter Chiarelli says about every young star he has traded?

Ummm, its been 6 games. New team, new system, new home, not the number 1.

- Fakepartofme

I agree, but in saying that Tavares has been able to fit in seemlessly with the leafs. You could argue he isn’t the number 1 either.

Dunno, i havent heard any off ice issues about nylander other than he wants 8 per, and a closet for his hair products.
