His last game might've been the best game he's ever played. I knew he was good but what I seen from his vs Vegas was next level. He could be top 10 in the world right now
He's grown so much in his time in Toronto but he really is the perfect kind of player for the leafs exceeds in the pressure moments has his faults but doesn't lose confidence and last 3 years he knows more than ever what he can be and do look back at half his goals over the last 3 years all clutch momentum building for the team if the leafs did ever win a cup don't be surprised if he takes the conn Smythe
Seriously though. I’m frustrated with the questions and Indont have to answer them. Mark Masters is a guy that never played hockey in his life and has no clue what he is talking about but still gets to ask all the questions
@@MrKohulann30 of coarse you don't need to play hockey to be a journalist. With that said, I like a journalist that has played. Alot more knowledgeable and the opinions I actual care to listen to.
Papi #34 needs to be 100% healthy, before he returns to the lineup! The team is 6 - 1 in his absence and playing Berube style hockey! First place in the Atlantic. The injury bug has hit the team hard, but the Leafs just keep on winning. Tre, working on trades too make the team better. All is good in LEAF LAND!
@@LeafNation67 I think people are genuinely happy to see Willy play with his brother, nobody is expecting the 2nd coming of Auston Matthews, it’s a league min contract, let them enjoy some brother bonding, team is depleted and it’s probably for a short time, we ain’t that stupid
Auston Matthews hope take day by day as it goes by, just recover be all healed up for the game soon, bless you also, from Dalhousie NB Canada 🇨🇦, 💙🙏🙏💙💙💙💜💜💜👍
I love how Papi basically tells the media , it’s none of your fucking business… And he is right. If he wanted the public to know……… He would have told us
What is maddening is how the media scratches their heads and can’t understand and complain about the fact he doesn’t want anyone to know what his injury is….. it’s his private business to some extent but let’s be honest….. his fellow NHL players on other teams would deliberately target his injury to win. Simple.
Odds are they won't be. I've never watched Alex play but I'd he's anything like his brother, the team is in trouble, especially if they're on the same line
@@jeffreycairns767he had a bit of a resurgence in CBJ and looking good with the Marlies. Just hope he does well. No point throwing stones before he even touches the ice. Leafs are playing good hockey right now. Let’s not get into emo mode now. It’s not even April
He loves all the attention he gets. Too many think he's this big star that they can't see he's useless 95% of the time and when he's nit scoring, it's 99% of the time. I just hope his brother isn't the same way or they could be in trouble, especially if they're both on the same line
Leafs have 15 games in December, 8 of them come in back to backs (4 back to back situations in December) Shanahan and Treliving need to get a hold of that situation for next season.
"What you feel comfortable telling us-" should be the journalistic standard when asking about medical stuff. Props to whoever asked that 1st question (Masters?)
Well we're going to find out if Nylander 2.0 brother Alex has grasped the requirement to play reliable D away from the puck. I believe that has been the issue for him finding better success in the show. Berube seems to get a buy in from guys on how you play without the puck, so lets hope Alex can lift that area of his game.
Literally zero reason to rush Papi back, the boys are playing out of this world considering the lineup so be patient and smart with the return to gameplay. It's not like they're wilting without him in the lineup.
@@rhaspados666 Correct! He is older and by default spent more time in North America than Alex, so his accent is less noticeable. Same thing I said, but different perspective. For both them though, English is the second language...I definitely think Swedish was/is what is spoken in their household.

Anyone else pick up on the fact Matthews went to Germany for treatment? It just shows Canada's health system is lagging wayyyyy behind. Right now to see a Oncologist, its a 5 to 6 month wait.
@@honkingantalope Nylander is very selfish most of the time and doesn't seem to like passing, especially to Matthews. The rest of the team, yes, but not Nylander
Our media is like a group of mosquitoes you can’t shoo away around a camp fire. Super annoying. Poor Austin and bombarded with stupid injury questions, he obviously didn’t want to talk about it so move on. Anyone else have anything that Toronto media reminds you of, please feel free to share. Gnat flies also came to mind
There’s a McCain pizza pop commercial…. McCain pizza pop yelling Baked….and competitor yelling Fried…at a lovely blonde girl….. she chooses the Baked one…. While the other one is yelling FRIED FRIED FRIED‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️….. that’s the media multiplied by 60 yelling FRIED FRIED FRIED ‼️
Have to be honest. The guy obviously has a physical issue/injury he hasn't and may never shake. Perhaps the 4 year deal was the best thing for the leafs. Not to say i think they should trade him, but he won't be worth as much as if he was 100% healthy. It's gotta be the wrist
@jeffreycairns767 i doubt they play on the same line, they signed him because will and his Dad have vested interest in the organization, it's more or less a morale signing
What's the inside info on Alex he was great at the world juniors picked 8th overall by Buffalo. He's 6'1 210 lbs skates like WIlly what are we not hearing ? He's on his 5th NHL team and went down to the AHL wonder why Columbus let him go. I guess we'll find out.
Doesn't really matter, honestly. We've heard bad things about a number of players over the years but until we see how he is, we should judge him. That said, I really hope he's more useful then his brother
he had a number of offers from NHL teams and opted to sign an AHL deal in Toronto to be with his brother in hopes of playing on the same team. He did well in Columbus last year & could be a good bottom 6 player.
Did Mathews drink fluids while in germany? If so how many and at what times? Did the fluids make him have to piss? Some Questions i wished they had asked about the Germany trip.
I'm so tired of this lack of information revolving around injuries. I wonder why things get blown out of proportion when the transparency isn't there from the team. Whatever, get back in the line up and play like a 13 million dollar player.
Papi never leave please. Leaf for life. You know how to keep the reporters in check. So happy to see you back.
Willy is an absolute gem, not many people can handle the media like him, and i love how he shows personality and is always having fun and smiling
Agreed. Always a great interview.
Totally agree,
I would like to add that he's in his own world haha. I think that relaxed/chill mindset is why he performs so well in the playoffs.
His last game might've been the best game he's ever played. I knew he was good but what I seen from his vs Vegas was next level. He could be top 10 in the world right now

Welcome back Auston, we're all glad to see you.
So nice to see the captain back ❤
Good job JT recently
Indeed it’s good to have Matts back, but errrr lol JT is solid more than not and not just “recently” lol
Bro I'm about to buy one of those magic amulets at the rate JT is going
@ me too , it’s obviously working 🤣🤣🤣
Do whatever you gotta do Auston !! The Boys are holding it down until you return !! no pressure relax and come back DIALED !!! GO Leafs Go !

7-1!
Papi’s back baby!
Not yet
yay! cant wait for the team to get worse
Fuck, I think he should take an extra few weeks , just so we can maintain our number 1 spot ☝🏻
Welcome to LEAFS Alex Nylander…good luck …and welcome home Auston!
Papi seems less tired and more joyfull.
"NO-shirt" Nylander will be easier to distinguish now that we also have "shirt-ON" Nylander
LOL
I was looking for the No-Shirt Nylander comments! 😂
We only see them from the chest-up... maybe Alex doesn't wear pants?
GO LEAFS GO!!!
I hope you feel better Auston .❤
Welcome back Papi!
I understand why people think we blow things out of proportion here in Toronto, but there is a documentary about McDavids knee.
Excellent documentary. Amazing that he’s even playing hockey at all, never mind how talented he is.
I almost forgot what Auston sounded like. Thank goodness for those RBC commercials. I guess he made the trip to Germany count.
Underrated comment
and I'm Auston.. with a "A" 🤓
@@BobLeeeSwagggaNo….. With a C ‼️
Mattys hat is dope!
I wanna know where to get that
Gotta play for the team 😭
Such a down to earth dude
The Nylander bond is very special. Those two clearly really are close.
Leaf fans are expecting Sedin magic and it’s not gonna happen. Alex really isn’t good enough to make this roster when all is healthy.

You are the best person ever you are the best hockey player
I'm really pushing for Alex. I really hope he does well in his first game. I'm hoping he becomes a mainstay in the lineup.
GO LEAFS GO #IBELEAF #LEAFSFOREVER
Better to have Matthew's playing near 100%
Congratulations 🎊 🎉🥳Nylander's🤙🤜🤛
Leafs media, the leading experts in asking the same question 19 different ways. Matthews really handles it well at least
Papi your down to earth...we all need you..go buds go! 4:30
Happy about Alex, congratulations
Auston is a magnificent player!
There's❤🎉our STAR❤🎉😊Welcome back🎉So nice to see you and that 😊smile❤

Yup, and most would get away with it no matter what it was, especially Vegas and Florida
If the Nylander brothers are as successful as the Sedin twins, Toronto fans will be exuberant

thats because hes sheltered. only marner gets the smoke

Holy fuck it’s good to see him
We should all chip in to buy Willie some shirts
Leafs have 15 games in December, 8 of them come in back to backs (4 back to back situations in December)
Shanahan and Treliving need to get a hold of that situation for next season.
They grilled Matthews for 6 minutes on his injury. Give the man some space! Why not ask him about his most recent bowel movement?
It didn’t make the cut
Welcome back papi! Now let’s rack up some points so I can climb up in my hockey pool 😂
No rush, Tone. The boys are holding it down.
Papi's back on media at least😮💨💙
The return of El Papitán!
"What you feel comfortable telling us-" should be the journalistic standard when asking about medical stuff.
Props to whoever asked that 1st question (Masters?)
The retro leafs hat is so sick!
"There a little bit different" it's okay Craig we all know Willy is light-years better
Rest baby, long season
Hun wake up PAPI'S BACK!!!!!
Blue Line - Red Line - Hair Line
I’m your biggest fan
Austin Matthews, I really want to meet you so bad so so so so so bad I’ll come to see your game in March
Why do I get the feeling it wasn’t an injury per se.

Good job lookin after yourself Auston, better job at handling these vampires, and their dumb, repetitive questions.
Great hat
Broooo Pop Happy❤

Austin, take Domi's spot, no loss no fowl. Domi needs a reset as well.🎉
Robertson plays LW and has a brother too. Ouch.
Anybody know where to get that hat ?
Willy is made for this market 😂
Did Alex spend more time in Sweden at a younger age? Sounds like he's got a bit of a noticeable accent
I assume so, when they went back he was 11 or 12 right? Still, his accent isn't very noticeable, but definitely more than William's
Willie was alive for more of micheal carrerr over here so he spent more time here
@@rhaspados666 Correct! He is older and by default spent more time in North America than Alex, so his accent is less noticeable. Same thing I said, but different perspective. For both them though, English is the second language...I definitely think Swedish was/is what is spoken in their household.
@@Bells2141 interesting! Swedish players in general speak excellent English. Landeskog for example talks like a kid that grew up playing hockey in Canada 😂

A ball I’ve seen it too and filmed it on New Year’s Eve 21 at midnight exactly. In Ajax

WB Aston....... some of the questions though........
🎉❤Welcome🎉😊To Toronto!!Alex🎉❤😊
Matthews going to Kucherov/Stone it so the Leafs can load up at the deadline.
I think he was just trying to be proactive about it
Man I miss watching Matthews’ stache move
I don't. Tied of the team only passing to Matthews every time. The team realized they are the best option. No more always trying to find one guy.
AURA
@@honkingantalopeur a phoney fan man😭🫵..look at all ur comments ..phoney

is it a requirement to ask the dumbest questions possible to get media access?
Wrist right??
Have to be honest. The guy obviously has a physical issue/injury he hasn't and may never shake. Perhaps the 4 year deal was the best thing for the leafs. Not to say i think they should trade him, but he won't be worth as much as if he was 100% healthy. It's gotta be the wrist
What is wrong with Auston? Back issues?
Alex doesn’t rub his chest, neck n face near as much as Willy.
Alex isn't desperate for attention like his brother
W. Nylander & A. Nylander on the ice
I hope Alex is more useful overall. If not, this team could be in alot of trouble, especially if both are on the same line
@jeffreycairns767 i doubt they play on the same line, they signed him because will and his Dad have vested interest in the organization, it's more or less a morale signing

Good choice by Matthews, only the playoffs matter
He used the amulet...

Surprising no one has any scoop on this Germany thing. By the sound of things he's been there before. Do we need to hire an investigator? LOL.
no wonder some of the players hate the media, these guy's ask the same fucking questions all the time.
Please stop letting Mark Masters ask questions. Most annoying interviewer in Leafs history.
He’s back🥹
That makes you sad?
Is it ur wrist darling hope u feel better miss u
Did Mathews drink fluids while in germany? If so how many and at what times? Did the fluids make him have to piss? Some Questions i wished they had asked about the Germany trip.
They're missing so many forwards they're asking players if they have brother's 😂
Why keep drilling Papi same questions
he forgot to wash his face, brush his teeth
wait shave lol
Mark Masters asks the dumbest questions
I bet he missed being asked dumb questions
Stop asking him about his sore back.
I'm so tired of this lack of information revolving around injuries. I wonder why things get blown out of proportion when the transparency isn't there from the team. Whatever, get back in the line up and play like a 13 million dollar player.
Mark masters is really annoying
Take off the hat Auston I’m tryna see sumthin
Why do these interviews seem scripted
bc they're media trained
34 too soft. Always happy when he he’s not playing. Check the record.
