"With William Nylander signed, the next question was when would he play. Last week head coach Mike Babcock said he wasn't sure and Nylander would probably have to be eased into the lineup. Nylander had been practicing with a team in Sweden over the last while to stay in shape and be ready for a possible return. Well it looks like not much time is needed as Nylander confirmed his return.The Leafs' forward confirmed that he'll be playing in Thursday night's home game against the Detroit Red Wings!
