As for Nylander, heās not just turning heads off the ice ā the Swede is delivering on it too. Coming off a career-high 98-point campaign, Nylander has 13 goals and 22 points in his first 20 games this season.
He and the rest of the Leafs will be back in action this Saturday as Toronto searches for its fourth straight win with a game against the Utah Hockey Club.
