William Nylander Talks Contract Negotiations, Maple Leafs New Signings | 32 Thoughts 

One of the only players that looks and acts greatful for what he has. He's very well aware he won't get this treatment anywhere in the league from training staff to the fans. He has also been one of the most consistent regular season and playoff player on the team in years.

Great interview. Players trust you guys, it was interesting g and it nice to see a huge star and fan favourite relaxed and chill and engaged with interviewers.

Pineapple on pizza. I'm so proud to wear this guy's jersey. He knows what's up. Sweet & salty. 🍍🍕💙 And legit, no one talks about wanting to play in Toronto long-term as much as Nylander. Even the guys from Toronto. You never want to lose a guy like this.

I’m chilled from watching this chilled chad of a man. Hopefully Willy gets locked up for another 4 years like Papi ❤

Please stay ! His best hockey is ahead of him. What a great player and great guy

Nylander is such a baller thooooo

The thing that Willy proved this past season and playoffs is that he’s clutch. Ice in his veins. He’s gotten better by the day. I hope we get a contract with him signed.

As a Swede myself I can wholeheartedly say that William Nylander cares... deeply... about everything! It's a Swedish trait to act like it's no big deal, not wanting to make oneself bigger then you are or the situation bigger then it is. Jantelagen! And what come's off as kind of cocky is actually quite a bit of shyness that we then mask with smiles and laughs. Just that little bit about him worrying about his dogs is quite revealing that he has the biggest heart and the same with how much he cares about Rasmus Sandin. Gotta love him!! He is so dangerous and unpredictable in his play and just a pure offensive talent even more then Matthews and Marner so cough up the dough he´s worthy of Toronto!

Really hope we see Willie signed to the Leafs. You're a legend mate! With Matthews, Bertuzzi , Domi , Marner and Willie , that's a legendary like up... Come on boys to the top of the mountain !! Go Leafs Go!!

This guy is so great. Only getting better. They gotta keep him.

dangit he wants to be a leaf forever you can tell clear as day get him signed...hope he has a great year.

He's been one of the best if not the best playoff forward in the last couple years. And that's when it matters most. Love the guy and want to see him signed.

Besides marner, Nylander was by far their best player .

Nothing would put a bigger smile on my face than a massive Boston Pizza commercial with Willy’s pineapples!

He is clutch in the playoffs. Leafs need him badly.

I love willie he’s such a great character be amazing to be a teammate with

Love this guy

Let’s go Willy💪💪💪💪

That was awsom guys thanks for the upload !

I haven't really seen his interviews in couple years but he seems to be the same very likeable guy. All the best for next season Willy 💪

I hope he can win the Stanley Cup with Maple Leafs one day. When I see Nylander play hockey is like see how both Salming and Sundin played the game😁👍. Nylander will be better evey year. And like Salming and Sundin was great guys off the ice Nylander is that too. All of them was/is down to earth.

He's always been so comfortable in front of the camera.

Keep this man in Toronto. Willy Styles is Toronto Style... young, talented, exciting and just a bit cocky about it....shrug off the haters with a Swede grin and get on with it.

Willy can be the most dangerous player on the ice when he wants to be!

Hey Willy. Listen, just sign a reasonable deal with the leafs. You are one of the most talented wingers Leaf's have ever had and we need you to help get this thing done. Just think about it. Win a cup in Toronto, and you'll build a legacy that'll go on forever. You see how us Leaf fans still talk about guys 60 years ago winning the cup. That's the kind of reverence you can expect. Anyway, I gotta say, you are always impressive come playoffs. Love how you pick up your game when it counts the most! Cheers mate, really appreciate your easy going attitude!

This guy is so fkn cool, that's why he's "Willie Styles" ... here's to a Stanley Cup ring in Toronto this year bud! That would solve almost everything, keep the confidence at all time high, never say "nothing is working" again while playing... it's the Secret. Positivity + Skill = Success! Always.

Most Underrated Player in hockey! Yes, he might not hit or like to get hit, but he steals the puck and is CLUTCH!!!! Look how many of his goals are in 3rd period or overtime!!!

Great interview!

Baby steps guys/girls! Baby steps. Don't worry, we will win the cup soon. It's coming, it will grow the game more than anything to ever happen in Hockey.

Ice in his veins. Seems to be able to handle all these talking heads. Built for T.O.

The solution to his contract? Get him to sign a one year deal at 7m. Then when JT's contract comes off the books sign him for 8x10.5m. The extra .5 is a thank you for signing the one year deal.

He looks bigger and healthier

Nylander has been the most consistent player in the playoffs last 2-3 yrs out of the core 4. They should keep him and trade JT instead.

Love this guy....I'd take him in heartbeat on my sens...he's chill cause he played OHL in greater t.o..steelheads..he knew what he was in for in jr...that's why he's chill..he's been dealing with you Yahoos since jr .😂..oh and 10.5 for him is a steal...he actually plays unlike fashion boy...

My "best friend" and I are avid Toronto Maple Leafs fans. We want William Nylander to stay with the Leafs. So please stay with us.

I like the fact Willy paid his dues in the minors and worked his way to where he is today. Good on ya Willy!

Sure hope signs they need him ..getting to be a great player...Has to stay finish the job..He grew up with Auston and Mitch...matured men now. they have the best still to give will be.just wait. . AWESOME....💙💙💙💙💙💙He is a forever Leaf. .. Willy Styles sure is calm and cool ..

The fact it was willy telling Mo to shoot is kind of worry’s me with Keefe😭 I was fine w him coming back but after that lowkey scared, Keefe should’ve been telling them to just shoot well before that even the fans were yelling at the screen to do it 😂

Cool interview. Glad they aren’t keeping Matthews deal secret to manipulate Nylander - as some suggested - at least Leafs Executives are more open now. Good that right after when Leafs Executive ethics were questioned publicly - the Matthews deal went public almost out of the blue? Good on that.

Elliotte hit the nail right on the head! I was thinking Willy looked bigger in the first few seconds of the interview. Im not sure if thats a good thing with his style of play. Its not like he gets knocked around much. But in the playoffs i did notice he was a little nervous to win the races into the corners. so maybe thats what he was thinking by adding the weight.

If you go to Toronto or not man it was nice that you started from Toronto ! Its a stupid business this hockey game thing is you just never know where youll end up . Not everbody ends there career where they started right but if they do . Now that would just be super special now wouldn't it be ! Do me a favor make me want to cheer for this team againn ! Last cup that came this way was a long time ago and that would be alone sement you in a shrine in the city of toronto ! Best of luck young man which ever road your on either there in Toronto or somewhere else .

I bet all leaf players are hitting the gym hard this summer. They are going to be physical as a team. Still need to get a couple big Dman though.

Nelander is doing what any person who believes in their skills and capabilities are doing to sell them self to be compensated for the most possible. This is a job first, passion second, NHL star third.

Fun Fact: Hawaiian Pizza was invented in a pizza joint in London, Ont. I had fun informing people in Hawaii of that fact. They of course assumed in was them.

Face of the franchise will be missed. Know your worth you GEM.

I've dumped on Willie plenty, but ultimately you have to accept who he is as a player and I'd like him to remain a Maple Leaf

That Jake kid who did the interview with Rielly is amazing, I just discovered him the other day, kid is only 13 years old going on 20, great interview, you can tell Mo was impressed with him.

I'm no fan of the Leafs or of any of the corpse 4, actually Tavares excluded. Matthews is now signed for $13.25M, the highest in the league. Marner when he is up in 2 years likely will get at least $12M. Tavares, also up in 2 years, will have to take a cut from $11M to, say, $8M. The 3 of them when added up will be in the $33M-$34M range. In light of that, Nylander really does deserve the $10M he reportedly is wanting. Toronto would be wise to meet his terms and extend him and keep the corpse 4 together.

The guy has literally spent half his life in T.O. King Willy will be one of the all time great Leafs. If not for the 11m Tavares contract and Reilly's horrible D , we would have won the cup already. We need a punishing D core who can make an outlet pass.

Outstanding fit

Such a classy guy

We have the right team good luck Leafs. 🐣

I will thanks 🙏👍

Swedish pizza❤ fish, eel, meatballs and all the sauces. The women, the nature, the clean air and super expensive alcohol

Pineapple for the win

"my mind is only in toronto." *solid blink* we gotcha ;)

Hey willy 9.5 over 8 years . Getter done buddy that's 76 million. How could you turn this down fella.

Is he signed for this and next year?

Big willy, you win in TORONTO you go to the HOF. And become a GOD of the hockey world. You want to be a hockey GOD? Yes you do. Peace from 1 Canadian to another. Get ur done

Willy is both so clutch and so lazy 😆

Pineapple on pizza is yummy. This man is my favorite. Love Toronto Maple Leafs

When it comes to pure talent Willy is the best player on the Leafs, they have to sign him.

Hey Willy, I’m a leafs fan and I think u should go to Habs

Willy Listen; your loving the spotlight and thats great, but thats what Toronto Maple Leaf hockey brings you. If you cant bend for 1M or whatever to enjoy ALL the perks of being in Toronto, IF you go anywhere else you'll just be another Ice hockey player. TML IS THE SPOTLIGHT hope you stay on board.

Alot of talent when he wants to play he is one of the best in the league but he also is a bigtime floater

3:00 lmao way to catch the F-Bomb Willy.

If Bertuzzi plays on the top line, he will have career highs. He will be an overnight fan favorite, and he will have to walk because the Leafs won't be able to afford him.

Willy is huge holy

This guy needs to take a big discount on his next contract if the maple leafs wants to become championship team.

Willie will revert back to his old 100-ft game once he signed his $90 M, 8 year contract extension!

trading willy the wizard would be like punching yourself in the face all day with a jack hammer for no reason

Get 3 solid players for him. Played this waiting game once. I dont think managment will donit again

Every summer Willy trade talks so why should he be bothered this summer

👍💯

you're a little late guys on whether Mr Nylander wants to resign or move, etc.... June 30th Treliving didn't need to ask nor were there any constraints as far as any teams out there, modified NTC only kicked in. ... Maybe he's subconsciously thinking about Colorado or Edmonton??

Nylander 5 years 46.25 million 9.25 million aav?

William Nylander - the most underrated athlete in the history of sport ...why? because some semi upright, simple minded, punch drunk members of the media have repeatedly pontificated that Nylander and Marner are to soft. While they have been forced to except these players are gifted as of late why the hell would you want a players like these, Marner, Nylander, Gretzky and alike to hit anyone with their hands of pure gold or take a hit while possessing a hockey 'IQ' of an 'ai' developed post 2045. Its like asking me to trade my 450 timberjack for a ferrai to draw logs logs threw the back 500 of the Kawartha highlands. when i heard Jay Rosehill say the leafs need to trade marner because he didn't punch back when in a tussle with Tkachuk (by the way he DID ! at :24 in associated SN video) in the spring is akin to suggesting Gretzky should have been traded for not dropping the gloves every time he was challenged- insane. Kids listen to these clowns and take it into the game causing some to have to live their lives with a debilitating injury for a stupid game which is in part why hockey enrollment has recently been eclipsed by soccer, checking is supposed to be 'angling' not murder. While i love the physical play afforded by players like Reaves doing what they do best id rather see players like Marner have longer career's rather then being 'side swiped' or punched out of their career's prematurely. i would also rather see Reaves play hockey, he's really quite good, rather then appease the knuckle draggers of our game and put some poor guy on a stretcher. But what the f....k does a dumb lumber jack-off no eh??

My is Kevin and I like #88 please don't go buddy I like all you guys

Pause at 8:41

Sign this man asap

Looks as though he’s 100 lbs heavier than when he was drafted!

He’s staying. The leafs need to come off the 8 million position in order to get it done though.

After news of Auston's extension, Willy's no longer house hunting in Oakville.

please sign with the leafs willy 🙏🙏🙏

Elliotte Friedman: “You look thicker.”

I would like to see Nylander stay to be a great leaf because I know Samsonov now because I work at Loblaws at Lake Shore and Billy bisup airport please stay buddy

Hi 👋😌

"You look thicker" 🤣

He is not worried because he know he will be getting money, weather that be in T.O or some where else

Dont care what anyone says but Willy is the only Toronto Maple Leaf player who gets better every season. Yeah, He can be frustrating at times but, and it is a big but. you will never replace the offense he brings. You would have to get a number one defenseman like Seth Jones or Doug Hamilton to make a swap worth the Leafs time. Not gonna get that for an unsigned Nylander,

Leafs fans expecting him to take a paycut but doesn't care that Matthews took over 13m

Guy wears a toque in the summer

Idk man, Toronto players are Chilling 🧊 🏖️ 🌴 lol

He keeps getting better would be big loss if dont get good value

love him or hate him, willy has so much moxie its ridiculous. Phil mickelson-esque. lots of figjam

Talking like a 2nd round appearance was a cup final😂😂😂

You made me hungry but I'm fasting but oh well I'm going to have some pizza

We're already a tougher team this year. Now we're gritty.

He sounds a lot less Swedish now for some reason

Chilly Willy holding all the cards. Not a care in the world.
