Nylander picked up the puck at the midfield line when a Tampa Bay player messed up with it in the offensive zone, took off almost alone towards the goal and finished with a quick wrist shot to 2–0 for the home team. Tampa's goalkeeper, Swedish Jonas Johansson for the day, could do nothing. And Victor Hedman's two assists for Tampa didn't help against Toronto this time either.
Last season, Nylander scored 40 goals and 58 assists, and missed a hundred points by just two meager points.
Toronto leads its division in the NHL and Nylander is the forward who has scored the second most goals in the entire league.
In New York Islanders' 3–1 win over Columbus, Islanders' Simon Holmström contributed to the victory by scoring the goal that gave his team a 2–1 lead in the second period.
