The 2023-24 NHL season has been nothing short of spectacular for William Nylander. From the very start, Nylander has played far better than he’s played in seasons past – and he’s had some excellent seasons. This one would seem to be his best season, however.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nylander seems to be on a remarkable hockey journey. He’s leaving fans wondering how many points he will put up this season by the time it’s done. In this post, I want to take a game-by-game look at how he’s set the franchise record of putting up at least one point each game over the first nine games of the regular season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here, I will start with the season’s opener and work through until last night’s loss against the Los Angeles Kings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
