The Toronto Maple Leafs and their fans have paid close attention to the Olympics, as the NHL season has come to a complete pause. The Maple Leafs have three players in the Olympics, but none have been under the microscope as closely as William Nylander.

While Nylander plays a massive role with Team Sweden, he has been missing practice due to a lingering groin injury suffered in January.
