Sheldon Keefe on the Leafs locking down William Nylander for eight years: "Players of that calibre have unlimited options when they reach free-agency status... When they choose to remain here, it shows their belief in the organization, belief in the city, and the motivation to win in Toronto"
Briefly

Anytime a player makes a commitment to the team and the team makes a commitment to the player, I think it is a great thing, particularly when you have a player of this calibre who has shown that he is just getting better and better.
He has done the work, and I think he has grown a tremendous amount. He showed last season that he was finding great consistency and maturity in his game. He hasn't looked back from there. He is on another level this season.
