"This season has been 'super frustrating and rattling.' It is understandable why when the first nine seasons of his professional career resulted in his team being in the playoffs and this is the first time he has experienced a year such as this."
"Nylander believes that the Leafs can pull off a turnaround similar to what the Boston Bruins did who recovered quickly after falling out of the playoffs last year."
