Nylander Sends Toronto a Message - He Is Not Going Anywhere

William Nylander is making sure there is no mystery left in the room, and in Toronto, that usually means somebody is trying to turn a rumor into a storyline. The Leafs winger has chosen this week to be loud about where he stands, which tells you the noise around his future was getting close to the front door. When a player with his profile starts speaking this directly, it usually means the chatter has gotten too big to ignore, and the next move matters as much as the words.
