The Nylander camp and Leafs brass are at an impasse, though they have agreed to work toward a long-term deal. While his teammates wrap up their exhibition season with a home-and-home series against the Detroit Red Wings, Maple Leafs winger William Nylander remains on the outside looking in. “The long term is where both parties, our camp and their camp, have been focused on,” said Dubas. Matthews, Marner and defenceman Jake Gardiner are up for contract renewals. Gardiner will be an unrestricted free agent next summer; Matthews and Marner — like Nylander today — will be restricted free agents.
