When Brad Treliving arrived in Toronto, he faced a difficult task of negotiating a contract extension with William Nylander. The negotiations are stuck, and the Leafs have a challenging salary cap situation. Months later, Treliving still hasn't been able to solve the issue. In the meantime, rumors of possible solutions spread on social media. <div align='center' style='padding-top:20px;padding-bottom:20px;'><img src='https://i.marqueur.com/habsetlnh/i/photo/292737.webp' width='100%' border='0' alt='image' loading='lazy' defer /></div> This one is particularly bad and caused quite a stir. <div align='center' style='padding-top:20px;padding-bottom:20px;'><img src='https://i.marqueur.com/habsetlnh/i/photo/292708.webp' width='100%' border='0' alt='image' loading='lazy' defer /></div> The proposed trade includes Nylander, defenseman Timothy Liljegren, and a second-round pick going to the Islanders, in return for Oliver Wahlstrom, Jean-Gabriel Pageau, and a third round pick. <h3>Won't Be Happening...</h3> This trade simply doesn't do justice to Nylander's skills. Last season, he scored 87 points in 82 games. While trading Nylander might help the Leafs with their salary cap issues, it's a risky move. It could be beneficial only if they receive a compelling offer, such as a superstar player with a similar scoring ability or multiple first-round draft picks. Fans who have been critical of Nylander can take comfort in the fact that Treliving is unlikely to let this trade happen. However, the team still needs to address the pressing matter of securing Nylander's contract to move forward.
