Pressure has switched to Nylander now. The Leafs are doing just fine without him and don't lose any rights, so they can work on a deal or next year trade at their leisure. No way he can afford to sit out two seasons so he will be a little more compliant in a next year negotiation. I wouldn't be surprised to see him with a new agent (especially if Gross told him that the Leafs would buckle).
