Not playing around anymore.
Enjoy similar results then. Nylander is a slick perimeter player. If you want to get tougher you would at least want a guy that can score.19th in the league in goals over the last 2 seasons combined, 21st in points.
6th in goals, 5th in points among RW'ers.
He's a top 30 forward, and a top 5-10 RW. That's at least kind of a motherfucker of a player and you're not talking about trading him for 24-25 yr old prime terrorist Tom Wilson, but slowly becoming injury prone, turns 30 next march, 3 goals in his last 14 playoff games (and 14 in 83 overall) Tom Wilson.
If you're giving up a 40/80 player for a 20/40 player because grit/heart/insanity...you're going to have a bad time, every time.
If not Wilson or someone like him and a first in a good draft year what do you think you'll get for him? Remember that most GMs have an opinion worse than mine on physically challenged players.
