William Nylander’s absence from the Toronto Maple Leafs’ lineup in the 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs is starting to become more understandable.According to reports from Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman, Nylander is grappling with a severe migraine issue, which prompted team doctors to assess him for signs of a possible concussion. Sources indicate that Nylander began experiencing symptoms after waking up following the team’s final regular-season game against the Tampa Bay Lightning last week. Friedman suggests there’s optimism for his return in Game 4.https://www.highcpmgate.com/huweqnyxks?key=02ff0bf01860d124fb976c01a6663a4a
In the autumn of 2022, Nylander mentioned switching to a tinted visor after experiencing migraines. Speculation heightened when Nylander didn’t participate in the team’s initial playoff practice last week. The Leafs remained tight-lipped regarding Nylander’s playoff availability. When questioned during media sessions on Thursday, Coach Keefe declined to confirm Friedman’s report.https://www.highcpmgate.com/huweqnyxks?key=02ff0bf01860d124fb976c01a6663a4a
“We’ve been upfront from the start that we won’t comment on any player’s status or situation during this time of year,” Keefe stated. “However, we’re supporting Willy to ensure he has the necessary time to prepare for play. The medical team is monitoring him daily to gauge his progress.”https://www.highcpmgate.com/huweqnyxks?key=02ff0bf01860d124fb976c01a6663a4a
