Lucky goal but that's how you have to score on swayman

Yep, just need to generate chances, even a low probability one can still get to the back of the net. Having the core guy score goals I think is going to have a good reverberation down the lineup

Balls bigger than anyone of his teammates.

WWWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Boston got one, adorable

 

[BertCorbeau]

The poise and confidence to make that move to go 5-hole at that point.

Wow.

it's a practiced play he's done repeatedly, nothing lucky about that.

 

[likecheese]

They signed the right guy.

 

[sunstersun]

William knew 1 goal wasn't gonna get it done lol.

 

[Wendelstache]

Willy still doesn't look in game shape, but a 80% Willy is still a Willy.

 

[studebaker17]

He played a great game . Backchecking hard as well as anyone and they all did.
Think i was more stunned how he threw a hard hit .

 

[ruaware41]

The nerves on this guy. In my opinion he did not play any/significantly better this game than he did last game. It's about the process. And he's been doing it this series. Can't just look at the lack of production and say he hasn't been making the right plays. Keep doing it and good things will happen sooner or later. Nylander has done that this playoffs and he got rewarded today. Getting on the scoreboard is great but so is having a great game. Way to go Willie. Time to show up in the finale.

Led the team to this win. Atta boy willy

 

[Punch Drunk Loov]

My beautiful boy with the absolute electric hands. The guy is a killer

 

[sunstersun]

Something poetic about Matthews being out and us being able to rely on our #2 goal scoring guy.

He's still way off physically though. Speed is gone.

Like I said before Nylander >>>>>>>>> Marner.

Marner's a great player, but Nylander showing again that he has that game breaking potential with his speed and skill that Marner hasn't been able to show. He might frustrate people with some uncharacteristic mistakes and sometimes lack of effort/being soft, but damn when you need a clutch goal he's your best bet even more so than Matthews because of his speed.

As much as I like Marner if I had to choose I'd choose to keep Nylander for his potential to make big solo plays like that sweet breakaway goal.

 

[Stephen]

Willie needs to outplay Pasta over the next two games and rewrite some historical narratives.

Looking good in Game 6.

 

[TakeTheBody]

Love.

Styles.

Intercourse The Bruins.

 

[ACC1224]

I think he sets up or pots a couple tonight.
Game 4 and the first period of Game 5 he looked a bit off but the last two periods he looked like he was starting to feel it.

Yep
