A video of Mitch Marner and William Nylander at first practice since their viral altercation in game 4 leaked on social media.

If you missed it, in the last game between the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Boston Bruins, Nylander told his teammate to "stop f*cking crying" at the bench, after a heated exchange.

After the game, head coach Sheldon Keefe commented, saying it's normal for profesionnal players to get "pissed off" when things aren't going well for their teams:

"I look at it as something that happens when things aren't going well. But in the past, they wouldn't have talked it out, or argued it out. I look at it as progress, them being pissed off they didn't deliver. I don't look at it as frustration."

The Leafs held a practice session today, to prepare for the fifth game against the Bruins, and a video leaked of an interaction between both players.

As you can see in the following video, they seemed well, and over their past feud:

If Toronto wants to win against the Bruins, their star players will need to be profesionnal and find ways to keep their composure to play at their highest level.

It's quite reassuring to see. After Matthews' illness forced him to mis the third period of last game, and his status being questionnable for game 5, Nylander and Marner will have to step up their game to get back in the series.
