You know it’s a good OT winner when they show 27 replays from different angles.
It may not be entertaining to watch, but grinding out a win against a stingy team like that is something that good teams find a way to do. It’s these types of games that we’ll be seeing more often in the playoffs.
William “Sidney Datsyuk” Nylander with that edge work and steal
#ITS THE NYLANDER SHOW
William Nylander is a dirty little boy.
That was one of the most boring games I’ve seen this season. Glad we got two points.
Of all the NHL games, that was definitely one of them.
WILLY IS A CHEATCODE IN OT
#Willy Styles Can’t Be Stopped
Nylander didn’t even get a nod for the all star game btw
Matthews better figure it out honestly
William Nylander is a Genius. He’s absolute. He’s the saviour of this planet. He is what this generation needed. He’s my lord and saviour, my idol. He’s a demigod. An angel brought to Earth to bless us all. William Nylander is truly a magic worker I mean, look at this truly magnificent player he has become. Its mind-blowing. A brand new wave. A brand new vibe. William Nylander is not only a hockey player, but an artist. He’s truly passionate about his sport. He was destined to bless our eyes. Watching William Nylander isn’t enough, I need him to be beside me. William Nylander is truly amazing. Thank you God, for bringing us William Nylander. If you ever feel sad, or maybe, down, just remember the world is 4.543 billion years old and you somehow managed to exist at the same time as William Nylander. Young talent William Nylander. My King, My solution, my muse, my oxygen, my world, William Nylander.
That OT winner was nasty
Buying a willy jersey for this season was the best decision I’ve made in ages. Holy fuck.
Willy is so good in OT. The way he just danced through and gets one under the glove and in was gorgeous
Will Nye the SEXY SCORING GUY
I Fucking knew it when I saw him with the puck in the corner
WILLIAM NYLANDER HAS BEEN THE BEST LEAF THIS SEASON! FIGHT ME!

Obviously Willy deserves a MASSIVE shoutout!!…
But what an impressive night for Sammy. He made some really gritty saves to keep it tied going down the stretch. I’m not out here saying we have a guy who can rival Igor or something, but I’m part of the fanbase not pushing for a huge deadline deal for a goalie. And he’s why. Solid effort night in and night out (unless he has to puke.)
I’m not gay but I want to live in a log cabin in the woods with William Nylander. We won’t ever have sex, but there will be a simmering erotic undercurrent as I stand in the kitchen window watching him tighten his ass as he chops wood, shirtless, sweat pouring off his sexy Swedish body. I’ll run upstairs and masturbate, the entire time forcing myself to think of women while my thoughts drift back to Willy. I won’t be able to climax and I’ll eventually go back downstairs, angry. Sometimes we will look across the table and catch each other’s eyes, and in that second, anything is possible, but we both deny ourselves and go back to what we were doing. One day one of us will die, and the other will bury him outside the log cabin. Then he’ll go inside, pen a brief missive to his departed friend, and commit suicide, never able to deal with life without his one true platonic love.
I need a shower after that OT goal. Absolute filth
Remember people criticizing the leafs back in the day saying we can only win 5-4 games. Sure looks like we can win “playoff type 2-1 games”
What a beauty from 88. He has been money all year long
DUBAS, please just re-sign Nylander today. We cannot lose him
How does that not get you completely fuckin hyped after a somewhat of a snoozer of a game
Dude has really hit another level this season. Willy is unreal
If you told me in September that 70% through the season, there would be more games where Nylander was the best player on the ice than there were for AM34, I would of tried to sell you magic beans, and yet here we are
William fucking Nylander.
Willy is a fucking OT PIMP.
TSN: Already 33 goals, whats your secret?
Willy: I’m shooting more, and more are going in.
This is answer has so much win.
