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.
He is such a floater during the yr drives me nuts u make that much money you should be goin hard every time your on the ice plain and simple i played for 13yrs only reason never went to the big league was to small this is back in the early 80s
@1967wazzy to each their own opinion however he doesn't float around all year if he is as consistent as he is. Maybe the key to his consistency is his ability to know when to turn it on and turn it off. It's a long season and no play is playing 120 percent every shift they would be burnt out by game 50.
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.
He’s not built for playoff hockey. Neither are the other core 3 members unfortunately. You guys think it’s all about goal scoring but a playoff run takes grit and all four lines contributing.
@@MikeHoncho610and defence is paramount in the playoffs.Its not about scoring as much as it is about preventing goals.And it only gets tougher as the rounds go by.
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!
Thanks for clarifying. I'm a lifelong Leafs fan and Nylander has probably been my favourite player to watch in the last 5 years. I've been getting some bad vibes from him lately (and toque during summer and the kinda douchey earring definitely didn't help)...I started to question whether Nylander was actually smug and only cared about money and status. But I can understand that cultural differences may play a role in his presentation. Perhaps the problem was my worsening perception of him due to the media constantly talking trash about him.
Im an islanders fan and im so mad they didnt pay this guy before they re-upped matthews. Totally disrespectful to willy imo he needs to be taken care of. Hes the best Leaf
@@oo7952 No you’re getting played by Media wanting to lynch Nylander for wanting what he’s worth THIS time around. You take pay cuts when you’re 40+ years old not when you are in the prime of your career you silly goose! Ask Marner, Mathews Reilly and Tavares, who took absolutely NO pay-cut!
@@Davidium84Agreed.!JT and Marner are Toronto boys and they rinsed us so why the hell should the random swede take a paycut? Marner and JT better take big discounts on their next contracts or id say trade them both.
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.
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!!
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.
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.
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.
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!
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!!!
I came back to my comment here and am proud of what Willy has done each year to improve and get better! He is the Leafs BEST player on the team! For the first 5 or so years people would just rip into me and my take on 88! Just for saying he is not to his full potential yet and will be better than Marner by the end of their careers! Keep going 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.
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.
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...
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.
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.
My understanding is they lose weight throughout the year. Danny Briere apparently would use lighter and lighter flex sticks as the season went on. But coming in like this, to me, suggests he’s coming in ready to go - looking way down the road to when weight matters most. Believe in Willy. He’s the man.
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.
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 .
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.
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 😂
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.
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.
They won’t keep JT for anything over 6mil at that point in my opinion..he gets goals sometimes but he’s slowing down like crazy and just can’t keep up in a top line type of position
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 ..
Willy gets grouped in with marner on that first hold out but dubas was being a dink lol Willy had every right to as for around 7 like he got last time, he’s the only one actually fighting for what he’s worth. Marner just wanted matthews money when really he’s worth 8-9mil and now it’s gonna be an issue to keep Willy.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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??
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,
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
You don't understand what the big rush is? It's like this ... we need to know if you really insist on 10 mil ... because if you do, then we probably need to trade your ass *before* the year starts, not later ... so we can get something back ... does that make sense, chief. Alright then.
How do you know they take better care of you then any other team in the league 🤔🤔. 34 just took some money off your table with his greedy unwillingness to take a discount to win a cup. Good luck leafs,you will never do it paying 5 players astronomical salaries.
Since he born on Canada and spent his fourteen years of life in North America (except for summers), yeah why wouldn't sound like a English North American.
@jorgen5786 he also seems like hes completely hands off and just wants to trust his agent. Especially at this early stage where theres no rush to get a deal done
@bipolarpunt5721 if i was an athlete, i would defer starting salary demands to my agent, and not be involved in day to day discussions either. Agents are the ones with expertise on how these things work, how much higher to aim for before settling in the middle, etc.
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.
Love how Willy paid his dues in the minors and continues to improve his game year after year!
Yup. He’s the best of the bunch, imo
@almVancouver he also had to fight for pennies he was worth and gained the fan based respect. That is almost impossible.

Pause at 8:41
please sign with the leafs willy 🙏🙏🙏
He’s staying. The leafs need to come off the 8 million position in order to get it done though.
This guy needs to take a big discount on his next contract if the maple leafs wants to become championship team.
Get 3 solid players for him. Played this waiting game once. I dont think managment will donit again
Leafs fans expecting him to take a paycut but doesn't care that Matthews took over 13m
You’re delusional if you don’t think we wanted Matthews to take a lower hit.
Matthews could have pulled a power play and asked for $15m and the leafs would have to pay it or lose him. Believe or not he took a discount.
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,
Seth Jones🤣? Seth Jones isn’t a top pairing d-man and if he’s getting 9.5 William should be getting atleast 12 million.
love him or hate him, willy has so much moxie its ridiculous.
Phil mickelson-esque. lots of figjam
He keeps getting better would be big loss if dont get good value

It's like this ... we need to know if you really insist on 10 mil ... because if you do, then we probably need to trade your ass *before* the year starts, not later ... so we can get something back ... does that make sense, chief. Alright then.
Chilly Willy holding all the cards. Not a care in the world.
Talking like a 2nd round appearance was a cup final😂😂😂
3:00 lmao way to catch the F-Bomb Willy.
Ah hes a good boy glad hes a leaf
Sign him
Idk man, Toronto players are Chilling 🧊 🏖️ 🌴 lol
I rather have Nylander over Matthew
Very likable as well as overpaid.
Incoming $11 million, 5 year contract.
How do you know they take better care of you then any other team in the league 🤔🤔. 34 just took some money off your table with his greedy unwillingness to take a discount to win a cup. Good luck leafs,you will never do it paying 5 players astronomical salaries.
He sounds a lot less Swedish now for some reason
Since he born on Canada and spent his fourteen years of life in North America (except for summers), yeah why wouldn't sound like a English North American.
BS answer ,"my agent and Brad can talk ". Of course he guides/directs his Agent.
Thats why you have an agent isnt it?
Dont act like you dont know whats happening. He talks to his Agent before and after every meeting.@@jorgen5786
@jorgen5786 he also seems like hes completely hands off and just wants to trust his agent. Especially at this early stage where theres no rush to get a deal done
haha completely hands off, you dont believe that.
@bipolarpunt5721 if i was an athlete, i would defer starting salary demands to my agent, and not be involved in day to day discussions either. Agents are the ones with expertise on how these things work, how much higher to aim for before settling in the middle, etc.
