I’m not saying he should be but take it from a guy who has watched ennis almost his
Whole career, he can’t put up points unless he’s a top six player and it’s nice the leafs are giving him a try out contract and all but he is next to done. He was a shell of his former self post concussions went to Minnesota and we got a Dman for him and Marcus foligno in scandella (along with pominville) then chuck fletcher got fired soon after (hmm) because the wild had faith Ennis was going to be his former self.
Bombed.
If Ennis is going to put up points in Toronto this is the only way, playing with a Matthews or another one of your top centres.
It doesn’t do the leafs good though.
I’m not saying you need nylander the perfect thing would be to trade him for and an, Matthews doesn’t need him but he helps him. The leafs didn’t look fast last night and I don’t know I’m not saying there relying on him either for speed but something was missing. Other then killer instinct and clit h scoring/goaltending which got them the two points.
I hope Ennis well but josh leivo or another kid should get the slot, trust me wait till you see a washed up Ennis in a bottom six role.
It won’t be pretty.
I think you misunderstood, you said they could easily trade Nylander for a D man, I'm telling you, you are wrong because if they do that then Ennis remains on Matthews line, and while, I have liked Ennis so far that can't happen .
They need to keep Nylander so that Ennis can play where he was suppose to and that is ideally on the 3rd line with Kadri and Brown.
This Nylander thing won't last much longer because it can't because now Nylander is losing money, It's only a matter of time before he cracks and signs
