I have no doubt he will. He’s also been in the NHL how long?He is 1 point behind that number right now with like 20 games left to play. Ill go out on a limb and say he will smash that. And that Nylander probably never gets as much points as Lindholm does this year. Than you take in the fact Lindholm smashes Nylander defensively like its not even close there. And the salaries make it even bigger gap. No sane person would take Nylander.
Nylander is massively underrated defensively, he’s one of our best forwards at getting the puck out of the zone, and transitioning from defense to offense. Yea, he’s having a bad season for traditional metrics, after missing training camp, and the first two months... but he’s been one of the Leafs’ best players since coming back, so long as you aren’t blinded by the scoreboard.
At 24 Lindholm is just now managing to beat what Nylander did at 20. Do you think Nylander is done developing, or this is the new norm for Lindholm?
