Following the Toronto Maple Leafs' disappointing yet expected elimination from the 2023 Stanley Cup Playoffs, William Nylander wasted no time in planning his next move. Shortly after the Leafs' defeat at the hands of the Florida Panthers, Nylander promptly boarded a plane bound for his home country of Sweden.
Reliable sources have revealed that Nylander's immediate objective is to team up with his brother, Alex, as they proudly represent Team Sweden in the ongoing World Hockey Championships taking place in Tampere, Finland, and Riga, Latvia. Many NHL players who are not participating in the playoffs, including Alex Tuch, Milan Lucic, Scott Laughton, and numerous others, have already joined their respective national teams weeks ago.
The highly anticipated tournament commenced just yesterday, sparking the enthusiasm of hockey fans worldwide. Nylander's unwavering commitment to wearing the Swedish jersey in international competitions has been commendable and enduring. Consequently, it will undoubtedly be a thrilling sight to witness Team Sweden in action during this tournament.
