Once you’re gone you can never come back, when you’re out of the blue, and into the black 😉

I still cheer for the blue and white.. It's who I am.
I haven't gone Black(and Gold) so I can still go back

In some way, it might be.

Some Gm’s probably see his production at the WC as a good thing, others will see a guy who’s unhappy with his NHL club and is more suited for the bigger ice.

It’s like CFL vs NFL.. Not a whole lotta guys from NFL work out in the CFL because of the different playing surface, it’s a different game.

Correct me if I'm wrong.. You're saying William Nylander should play in the CFL?

No no.. he’s still a good NHL player..

Just not suited to play in Toronto.

FWIW, I think he would be a brutal football player

Oh ok

Nylander would excel in a market like Arizona.. Matthews and Nylander for Alex Goligoski.. Seems fair.

Nylander would be an excellent football player, he'd be a great punter

Punters sometimes have to get involved in tackling.

I’d love to see him attempt just one punt return, lol..

He’d be qb for sure.. has good vision, mobile, avoids contact.

You're all approaching this from the wrong angle.

He'd be a great poker player. He bluffed Dubas into giving him a fat ass contract.

Big ice - small ice.

Big field - small field.

Big adjustment that some athletes struggle to make.

There’s no conspiracy to report on here, Mr Jones.

It wasn't so much that Nylander bluffed Dubas.. It was more of Dubas holding two aces in hand, and shouting, "I won.. I have pocket aces, wanna see?"

CFL has a bigger field with deeper end zones. Kinda like the ice in Europe..
NFL has a smaller field and shorter end zones.. Like the NHL.

You know if the NHL had end zones

I like the CFL game better actually due to the bigger field and 3 downs.

If that happened, then Marner would be the "whipping boy" that is overpaid, and everyone would be hanging off of Nylander's nuts

I’m pretty sure his groupies, the Nylanderps, want to get (frank)ed by Willy, not (frank) him.

So he should create a line of dildos, they’d sell like hot cakes.

If willie and Auston are stapled together like Marner and Tavares, its possible.

Also PP time is a factor. But Babs coaching doesnt give me confidence
