Trade Becoming More Likely for William Nylander in Toronto
Despite a very busy summer for new GM Brad Treliving, the Toronto Maple Leafs still have plenty of moves to make, and one of them could be an absolute blockbuster.
Two big superstars
A potential blockbuster could involve either Auston Matthews or William Nylander, as they have both reportedly been in talks for a long-term extension in Toronto, while some believe it may be one or the other for the Leafs.
According to TSN's Dave Feschuck, the team could look to move the young winger if he comes into training camp unsigned, as he believes it could become a major distraction for the organization.
Nylander on the move?
We've already seen reports this summer that the Leafs and Nylander are very far apart on a number, and Feschuck believes the 27-year old's stubbornness may end up seeing him moved.
With the reported difference between the two in the region of $2 million (Leafs at $8 mil while Nylander was seeking $10 mil), this now becomes a possibility, and it appears one way or another, we will have a resolution soon.
