insider reveals William Nylander's availability for game 2 Vs Bruins
The Toronto Maple Leafs felt the absence of William Nylander keenly in game one of their first-round playoff series, but it looks like there's hope on the horizon for game two.
Details about the injury that sidelined Nylander for the first time in the 2023-24 season have been scarce, but recent updates hint at a possible return. According to insider Schmaltz, while there are still some challenges to overcome, Nylander's impact is undeniably crucial for the Leafs. His potential return in game two could significantly boost the team's performance.

Nylander hit the ice for Sunday's optional skate, signaling a positive turn in his recovery. Should he lace up for game two, his presence would be a major lift for the Leafs.
William Nylander was among the #leafs who took part in a highly optional skate in Boston this afternoon. It's the first time he's been spotted on the ice since Wednesday's game in Tampa.
After racking up 10 points in 11 playoff games last season and coming off back-to-back 40-goal campaigns, Nylander's ability to finish plays is exactly what Toronto needs. The team struggled to capitalize on their chances in game one, scoring just once on 36 shots. Nylander's knack for finding the net could be the key to turning things around as the series progresses.
