Craig Berube makes controversial decision on Alex & William Nylander
Yesterday, the Toronto Maple Leafs came through and opted to sign Alex Nylander, the brother of William Nylander, who had been playing with the Marlies.
Overall, this was a good signing for the team and it was one that got fans excited due to the Willy connection.
Since the signing, many fans have wondered whether or not the two brothers would play together.
It is a good question to ask especially with all of the injuries that the team is dealing with right now.
There are plenty of fans out there right now who believe that the two should definitely be on a line together, at the very least.
However, Alex is still new to the team, and Craig Berube has to make sure he manages his assets in the proper fashion.
As a result, do not expect the Nylanders to be on the same line tonight.
Alex Nylander and William Nylander will not play together
"Alex Nylander & William Nylander are in different sweater colours ahead of Leafs practice ... looks like they'll be on separate lines"
The Leafs are playing against the Utah Hockey Club and it should be a pretty interesting game.
The team has won six of the last 7 and boast a record of 12-6-2.
This morning, the two brothers were seen practicing together, which shows that they do have interest in playing together.
There is a chance that we will see these two on a line together if things end up going South tonight. Although we're not so sure that will be a guarantee.
Either way, it is cool to see the Nylander's on a team together. It must be an incredible time for their family.
