Maple Leafs' Nylander will play at World Championship
by from on (#2MYXA)
William Nylander isn't done playing hockey this season.
The Toronto Maple Leafs forward will play for Sweden at the World Championship, according to Chris Johnston of Sportsnet.
Nylander has represented Sweden at several international tournaments in the past, most recently at the World Junior Championship in 2016 where he suffered a concussion in the opening game. This, however, will be his first appearance at the senior men's level.
He'll join fellow Maple Leafs rookie Mitch Marner as a tournament participant.
