PS: Flyers @ Leafs - Sept. 23rd, 7:30pm - TSN4, TSN 1050

Polak must fancy the penalty box attendant.

I know it's pre season and all, but some positives. Really good breaking play up in the neutral zone with active sticks and good work forechecking

Sure, it didn't hurt that the Flyers stopped trying, but this was still nice.
 
I thought that Nylander played a good game, but I still think he needs to put on some muscle to play in the NHL

Nylander impressed many with his fluidity & speed.  He needs more experience and has to play more.  it's doubtful he'll make the roster, it will depend on where the Leafs feel it's best for him to gain that extra edge.

The 18-year-old son of longtime NHL forward Michael Nylander acknowledged being nervous in his first taste of professional hockey in North America.

?The pregame warmup, I was just looking around and I was like, ?This was crazy.?? Nylander said. ?Then the nerves started to kick in even more."

Carlyle said no one can dispute Nylander?s skill...?There?s some things that we?d like to see him change, and one of them would be stopping more and being in position on the right side of the puck,? Carlyle said. ?He?s one of those guys when he gets the puck, he has a little bit more of a burst of speed than the normal player, that?s for sure.?
