It really felt like it would be different this time. In the end, it was just like last fall.
www.nytimes.comNylander returned to the Leafs practice as the team refocused on a tough stretch; Sportsnet reports. Nylander is noted for high-end production but attitude questions affecting practice intensity. The storyline centers on merging high-end output with steadier team effort in skating drills. The context also notes previous instances referenced in sources noting attitude issues. The team refocuses and moves forward outside of the playoff picture, with Nylander role in center ending as needed.
