Brad Treliving Takes a shot at William Nylander Over Contract Talks
We're almost in September and William Nylander still hasn't signed a contract extension with the Maple Leafs.
There's still a year left on his contract, but many fans want to see this matter dealt with before it becomes a distraction for the whole team in the training camp.
In a recent interview, Nylander candidly revealed that he wasn't in a rush to get it done.
Now, a few days later, Treliving sent a little jab back to Nylander.
