Don't listen to him lol. Mostly everyone on this site has him on their ignore list.

Perry has never brought what Wilson has brought. Perry was a better player offensively, but Wilson literally has the entire package on and off the ice.

Oh,ok,I’ll do that right now!

i would build a team around you mondo

Correct, but I’d rather Nylander as a supporting piece.

PS: someone might’ve said this already, but I don’t feel like reading all the comments

------------------yeah guys like nylander grow on trees lol----------------------

i get it, tom wilson gives you goals and big hits/fights. but like, nylander was scoring at a 40 goal pace this year. Those guys hardly can be found "pretty easily" lmao

You sound like a real locker room glue guy

Nothing against this but this might be like the 20th time I’ve seen u post this somewhere lol

lol, believe me, it's been more than 20 times

it's been a while since I've used the chart tbh though, figured this whole nylander/wilson bs I'd better dust it off lol

Nick Robertson or Rodion Amirov are players who can replace Nylander but you can't replace Wilson.

between a guy who hits/fights and does a little bit of scoring and a guy who does a boatload of scoring and another cheap guy who hits/fights, I'd go for the latter option

Pace means nothing to me.

Just because a player is on "pace" for a certain amount of goals/points doesn't mean they will actually reach it. That's been proven year after year...

He's a lot more than a guy who hits/fights lol almost everyone on here knows that. He's expected to be Washington's next Captain.

Yeah lol, won’t lie it’s not close. Tom Wilson is a good player, but Nylander is better by far

ok, ignoring pace, he had 31 goals in a shortened season, 59 points. Was tied for 15th in goal scoring, had a handful less goals than panarin, kane, kucherov, mcdavid, and bergeron.

that's more valuable than a guy who hits and fights lol, sorry

again, wilson is fanastic, a great leader, deserves to be captain, he's the beating heart of the team.

but give me a guy who finishes top 15 in goal scoring any day of the week over him.

That's great! I'm happy for Nylander and Leafs fans!

You can get 10 goals less with Hoffman for much cheaper(taking your pace into account) same with Kubalik, Olofsson, and many others.

Wilson is much more than a guy who can hit and fight. I already explained that enough on here.

Nylander abandoned his team for money, you don't build around a guy like that.

You're one of the few Leafs fans on here I like and I already know there's no way we will come to an agreement on this topic especially since 1 of the players we're talking about plays for the Leafs.

Hoffman is also 31 though, no guarantee he keeps up his production. Nylander just turned 24

Also, he abandoned his team for money? Man wanted to get paid for being an elite winger, I've got no hard feelings to him for that. If anything it was dubas' fault for not being more proactive in signing him. When push came to shove and it was Dec. 1, nylander called him up and they got a deal done

Wilson is a heart and soul player, and I would LOVE to have him on the team, EASILY. The guy is from toronto too, I'd buy his jersey in an instant.

But to act like Willy isn't simply better at hockey, goal scoring, playmaking, play driving, possession etc. is silly imo

Washington got a gem in Wilson, having a guy who gets 20 goals and does what he does, but the leafs are better of with Nylander 100% imo

I respect your opinion though bro - make no mistake, I love tom wilson lmao

Nylander plays for money while Wilson plays for the team

Kubalik and Olofsson are younger than Hoffman and can score just as much as Hoffman.

You can always find guys that can make plays and drive the play. I'd rather have Kubalik Domi/Schenn Wilson than any realistic line with Nylander.

At the end of the day it's just preference. I will add this though, while Nylander can impact a game much more offensively. In a game that is shifting to a much smaller and skilled game, a player like Wilson can and will impact a game much more especially if he's playing with a playmaker and goal scorer. The fear of playing against Wilson alone can and will throw players off their game especially when Wilson can play 20+ mins a game.

If you can build a team with a combination of size, skill, physicality, and work ethic that will be the key to winning Stanley Cups in the future while teams are being built much smaller and much more skilled. NJD will get stomped on every year IMO.

Good convo though I'd love to have a beer with you if I'm ever in Toronto! Haha

yeah, teams find guys like Nylander all the time like that time.....uh.....sometime im sure it's happened.
It's not like a team can go out and trade for two guys like blake coleman and Barklay goodrow at the deadline at the same time or anything

bahahahahahahahahahaha, Perry was everything WIlson is and the better scorer and better in his own end. my god you're hilarious

Nylander without a doubt in my mind

love it.

This is literally the dumbest thing I have ever heard. Wilson is payed. He plays for money too. Nylander plays for his team. He plays for the leafs. He plays when he can (when he's not injured or sitting out whining for more money 2 years ago).



Exactly. I agree with this for sure, but ya, if either of those guys are you franchise player you team sucks.
