Nylander played a full 82 games in each of the last two seasons but did not play in Toronto's 5-1 game one loss to the Boston Bruins. There hasn't been much information on what is ailing Nylander but he is considered day-to-day and could be an option in game two on Monday night.

Nylander (undisclosed) will not play in Game 1 in Boston.

Nylander played a full 82 games in each of the last two seasons but will miss Game 1 in Boston. There hasn't been much information on what is ailing Nylander or if it will keep him out longer. For now, consider him day-to-day and hope the Maple Leafs provide some clarity on this mysterious situation.

Nylander (undisclosed) missed Friday's practice and is a "possibility" for Game 1.

Nylander was not on the ice for Friday's practice and the Maple Leafs were non-committal about his availability for Game 1. This is likely gamesmanship more than anything, I don't think there's any real concern that Nylander won't be available for Saturday's contest.

Nylander (illness) missed practice on Wednesday and his status is up in the air for Thursday vs. Philadelphia.

Nylander, John Tavares, and Mitch Marner were all absent from practice on Wednesday due to an illness. They will be reevaluated ahead of Thursday's contest against the Philadelphia Flyers. Nylander has five points (3G / 2A) in his last four games.

Toronto has signed William Nylander to an eight-year, $92 million ($11.5 AAV) contract extension.

After ongoing contract negotiations, Nylander and the Maple Leafs have agreed to terms on an eight-year, $92 million contract extension ($11.5 AAV). The 27-year-old Nylander has steadily seen his production increase in the last three seasons, arguably being the Maple Leafs' most dynamic player at times, and is currently pacing for a career-best 120-point season. With Nylander locked up long-term, the Maple Leafs guarantee they will have Nylander and Auston Matthews on their roster through the end of the 2027-28 season, while John Tavares and Mitch Marner have contracts that expire at the end of 2024-25.

William Nylander missed Wednesday's practice due to illness but will play Thursday vs. Seattle.

Nylander is having a phenomenal season leading the high-powered Maple Leafs in both goals (22) and points (45) across 38 games and will play Thursday after missing practice Wednesday due to an illness. He will look to continue to be a key contributor to Toronto's offence, which is seventh in the NHL in goals per game (3.42).

Nylander (illness) is questionable to play Monday vs. the Coyotes.

Nylander missed Sunday's practice due to illness and is questionable to play Monday. With Nylander not available, the Maple Leafs recalled Nick Robertson and he skated on the second line with John Tavares and Denis Malgin. Monitor Nylander's status during the Maple Leafs' morning skate on Monday.
