The William Nylander-to-centre experiment ends too soon (again)
It really felt like it would be different this time. In the end, it was just like last fall.
www.nytimes.comNylander returned to the Leafs practice as the team zeroed in on a challenging push; Sportsnet reports. Nylander stands out for scoring punch but on-ice mood issues affecting practice intensity. The storyline centers on balancing offense with consistency in skating drills. The context also notes patterns of complacency referenced in sources noting attitude issues. The team refocuses and moves forward outside of the playoff picture, with Nylander centre experiment ending as needed.
