On what planet is he not a top line winger?
How many top line wingers are defensive specialists? He was a +20
Speaking of why we are discussing him, are there rumours the Leafs are potentially going to be shopping him?
As other posters have stated, 29 other teams will look at a 60 point 21 year old and he is surely going to get more offers than a 4th D man on a horribly underachieving D
Edit: For avoidance of doubt, I do not believe Nylander is as good or nearly as valuable as Tkachuk

Points. The only argument for him. One dimensional, and fortunate enough to be playing with talented players on a team that tries to out-score you.
Based on the only thing that he has (points), he wasn't as good in this D+4 season as Eberle.
