He's had the majority of his success dishing Matthews the puck to date.
And it's a good thing we still have Matthews.

Came to say this.William Nylander is going to get back to 30 goals
Matthews has played 75 percent of his career with Nylander under Babs. That’s just lazy.Babs will have them split up again the first time they go a period without a point.
Babcock liked to use Willie on the Kadri line near seasons end to try and help generate offense from all three linesBabs will have them split up again the first time they go a period without a point.

Way to completely ignore the fact that they played a measly 300 minutes together last Season and barely any time together on the PP, chief.
If you watched the Maple Leafs on a semi-regular basis in the second half of last season you'd be well aware that almost anytime Nylander was given ice-time with Matthews, he was replaced in short order.

Yes, you're correct, and he boasted significantly better numbers when he was with Matthews in those two Seasons vs against :

Yeah, this confuses me. Everyone is signed, time to sit back and enjoy this season.Also kind of depressing how empty this season preview thread is compared to the 900 pages of complaining about contracts. We're not far from the start of what should be a great year of hockey.
Because their top D is 42, their top 2 C's are 33 and 34, their top LW is 31 and their #1 G is 32.Why do people think Boston are on a downward trend?
Climate change.Why do people think Boston are on a downward trend?
Nah, their top defender is 21 and just signed a sweet bridge deal. Not to mention Krug (28) & Carlo (22) are a perfect, dynamic 2nd pairing, and Grzleyck (25) is a transitional beast who dominates on the 3rd pairing. There defense is fine, and totally ready to move on from Chara.Because their top D is 42, their top 2 C's are 33 and 34, their top LW is 31 and their #1 G is 32.
With no obvious replacements on the horizon.

Yes. Usually high and wide. He needs to work on that.yea Willie is also an elite passer with great vision, but he likes to fire the puck too
