getting tired of the commentator who has been saying for 15+ games that 'nylander is getting better and better, he moves faster etc. - soon he'll get the point'.

there is literally NOTHING that has been positive about Willie's performance so far.
apologists should really stop pretending.

He's played well the last couple games. Watch the games

I thought he was good last night. I thought the whole team was good. Solid performance as a team.

He hasn't looked awful, Max. He is not earning his salary, but there have been positives.

He has been back for roughly 5 weeks now? It seems people are willing to give him a free pass for the season.

Not a huge Willie Ny fan, but we must watch different hockey games. He was better last night, had lots of grade A chances.

Yeah he played good, just needs to hit the net. His accuracy has been awful. What was he practicing all that extra time off?

Some people can't see past the hate, they just want him to be terrible. Doesn't matter how he plays.

Yeah there are no Nylander apologists.
Only realists. He's been pretty good the past 2ish weeks.

Yes, you cannot point out obvious improvement, that's totally wrong to do. Get a grip If you open your eyes he definitely played better last night. Is he where he needs to be? No, but he is getting better. This is what happens when you sit out the first few months of the season.

Hell get there eventually.

Definitely fire Dubas. I mean if he was a good GM like Federov would be he'd jump on the ice and show Nylander how its done.

Stoopid Dubas!

Leafs should have hired Poile when they had the chance

Or, to put it another way, there a lot of positives.

- TheMussel

Totally. I mean Poile would have gotten Matthews a game breaker like Jagr. Just because he had a contract doesnt mean we couldnt of just signed him....

Alas, we couldnt secure a high end winger like THE Jags. Theres always next year I suppose.

Not sure what Poile was thinking sticking around with a bunch of bottom feeders like the Nashville Predators when the Leafs were obviously in the hunt for a GM

I mean I think that is obvious, he was thinking "Ive got Tavares coming this year, as we represent the best situation for taxes"

It appears that it all rolls back to taxes. If only the taxes, then Poile would be in Toronto....

When he wins the Conn Smythe, we'll all be fine.

they are trying to be positive even if he's play is sucking.

most of knew this would happen to players who sit out a long period of time.
I'm surprised he hasn't pull his groin or been injured as do most players who sit out as long as he has.
