‘Although Nylander’s point totals have been nothing to rave about this season, his recent play away from the puck has allowed him to open his offensive play even more. The former eighth overall pick of the Sabres in the 2016 NHL Draft has always been able to show off his offensive skills when the puck is on his stick, but he has been more engaged in the play this season in all three zones of the ice, and has been more willing to go into the dirty areas to make a play. Nylander has quietly put together a nice, consistent season with the Amerks in his third season in the organization.’
