Yes, safe to say no one here has negotiated an NHL contract.
If he wanted to sign earlier he could have signed earlier, like he's advising his teammates to do.
If the Agent is in total control than perhaps Nyander should have addressed the agent with his comment.
I'm sure he did numerous times, but at the end of the day you're going to listen to the people trying to get you the most amount of money possible.
I'm not sure there is anything Nylander did wrong. If I was in his position even if I wanted to play and sign right away, if I knew there was a potential to get more money, I would have listened to what my agent was saying and I would have done the same thing.
Additionally I don't think there is anything wrong with what Nylander is saying, he clearly didn't enjoy the process, probably didn't want to go through it, but understood it's a business and you're going to listen to your agent, that's why you pay them.
