Nylander says the NHLPA told him he should have a deal done by 4:30. His reaction: “Shi—“ and a phone call to Kyle.— Scott Wheeler (@scottcwheeler) December 3, 2018

I missed it. Is there a place to watch it online?
Lots and lots of GMs have said this and then went back on it. But I feel like Dubas is a lot more likely to stick to it than most.
I don't get the NHLPA comment? In order for it to be processed, they need it by 4:30?
I'm really not a fan of this, assuming he said it.
I am very happy that Nylander is staying in Toronto but I do sort of feel like Leafs fans would be wise to not lean too heavily on the idea that winning in Toronto is somehow better than winning somewhere else. I feel like that takes us uncomfortably close to being the sort of caricature some people say we are. It's the Cup, if you win it it's probably pretty terrific no matter where.
For the player sure, but the overall reaction of the market it wouldn't be the same. Win a Cup in Toronto and the entire country knows who you are, you're a celebrity and legend especially in Toronto for all time. Win a Cup in Arizona, would most people on the street even recognize you the week after? I doubt it.

Winning a Cup wouldn't really change how many people in Toronto/Canada know who Willy Nylander is.
