William Nylander responds to Nick Robertson's move that got him injured

If you remember, Robertson gave Nylander a shove with his stick which ultimately led to Nylander falling over and getting injured as a Habs player gave him a knee to the face. Nylander was knocked out of the game completely, and fans were absolutely livid and disgusted with Robertson. Now, it is being said that Nylander is doing just fine.

Recently, Nylander got to speak to the media where he talked about the play and what went down. Essentially, he forgives Robertson but he acknowledges the move was not necessary. However, he is taking some responsibility here, claiming that he was not ready for the move in the first place and that he probably should have been.

This does not bode well for Robertson who could be traded for his stupidity. After all, a trade was being mulled over during the Summer. Unfortunately, for the Leafs, there was no market for Robertson. He is a talented player with some potential, but his latest move has stripped the Leafs fans of their confidence in him.
