He has simply been too good and will be too expensive moving forward.
He ended up starting the season by setting a Maple Leafs franchise record of recording at least a point in every one of the team's first 18 games.
It is obviously absurd to even consider Nylander earning a greater salary than sniper Auston Matthews, but if he wants to be paid in the same neighbourhood, the Leafs might have to move on.
