William Nylander Scores Hits 30 Goal Mark
5 years agoToronto Maple Leafs forward William Nylander picked up Toronto's lone goal Friday night as they fell 2-1 to the Ducks. Nylander's unassisted marker came late in the third period as the Leafs tried to claw away at Anaheim's lead but ultimately fell short. This is the first time in Nylander's career that he has reached the 30-goal plateau, and while unsurprisingly it lines up with a career-high 15.5 percent shooting percentage, it also comes with a career-high 2.88 shots per game pace. Creating and converting on chances at a career-best rate is a tried and true recipe for success, and it is a recipe that has Nylander four points away from establishing a new career-high point total. Second on his team in goals and power-play goals, Nylander has been one of Toronto's most impactful players for fantasy hockey.
