14th Nylander - 221 points (14th in goals at 95), 200 GP
I know Nylander is having a great season, but I would put him a step behind the big boys of the NHL.

Yeah, he’s not a night in night out super producer year after year, but he’s a guy who is skilled and works hard. Because the leafs have a lot of talent to cover off his production is up there. I understand the number is high because of the cap increase expectation. I don’t like it or dislike it for the leafs. Should be fine but I still question their back end over the long term aging of our former players back there. Tavares’ contract coming off its high will help though. But eventually they’ll have to pay Knies. I’m thinking Marner has to be considered bait next year.
