NHL insider Elliotte Friedman has shed light on the injury that sidelined William Nylander for the first three games of the playoffs. After the regular season wrapped up for the Leafs, the team announced that Nylander was injured, sparking widespread speculation.
Friedman, speaking on Sportsnet, revealed that Nylander was suffering from a severe migraine, prompting medical staff to assess him for a possible concussion. He further noted that Nylander had switched to a tinted visor in 2022 to cope with "eye migraines" that had troubled him during games the previous season.
