England in the process.PHILADELPHIA – One year ago at the NHL draft in Newark,
the Maple Leafs picked Frederik Gauthier with their first selection, a hulking
centre with likely third-line potential and a low offensive ceiling.

pick on Friday night, landing the "electrifying" William Nylander from Sweden. A
speedy, highlight-reel winger, he is the son of longtime NHL centre
Michael Nylander and the first European Toronto has drafted in the first round
since Jiri Tlusty in 2006. Nylander is also the first draft pick of the
Brendan Shanahan era and an injection of homegrown game-breaking ability,
long-starved within the Leaf organization. "Hes got high, high-end skill,"
gushed general manager Dave Nonis, shortly after the pick was made. And that
fills a need within the prospect ranks of the organization, considerably
deprived over the years. Though hopeful that the likes of Carter Verhaeghe,
Connor Brown and Andreas Johnson may eventually make an impact of sorts with the
big club, the Leafs simply did not boast a game-breaker with Nylanders ceiling
beyond the NHL club (and have not historically). They havent landed many at all
from the draft. Vincent Damphousse, picked sixth overall in 1986, was the last
homegrown player to register at least 80 points in a season as a Leaf. Toronto
has, additionally, sent only two homegrown players to the All-Star game in the
past 20 years, neither of whom was a forward (Tomas Kaberle and Felix Potvin).
Dealing first round picks – as they did five times from 2003-2011 – certainly
didnt help the matter. Nylander may or may not make it, but he, at the very
least, represents the kind of high upside, homegrown talent the organization has
mostly lacked, especially up front – Nazem Kadri, who scored 20 goals as a
23-year-old last season, was a recent exception. Nonis wouldnt go as far as to
say that adding skill was a priority, but labeled it "an area of weakness". "He
might be the most skilled player in the draft," said the Leafs GM of
Nylander. Nonis saw that skill firsthand at the Under-18 tournament in Finland
this past April. Nylander, playing for Sweden, led all players with 16 points
in seveen games, notching six goals along the way.
Tarell
Basham Youth Jersey. As a teenager, he spent part of last season in
Swedens top league, totaling a goal and seven points in 22 games – notable given
his age and size (5-foot-11, 169 pounds). "He has NHL speed, NHL hands, an NHL
shot right now," Nonis said. "Its whether or not the rest of his game can catch
up." Unwilling to pay Dale Tallons price for the first overall pick and rights
to draft Aaron Ekblad, Nonis said he actually considered moving down if one of
two players – Nylander among them – wasnt there to be had with the eighth
pick. Nylander grew up around the NHL, his father totaling 920 NHL games for
seven different teams. That kept the younger Nylander in North America until the
age of 14 when he moved to Sweden, eventually playing alongside his 40-year-old
dad last year (with Rogle in the second-tier league). "I like to score goals
and make plays," Nylander said, projecting an aura of confidence and cool,
noticeably unfazed by all that surrounded him. A free agent and thus able to
come to North America next year if he and the organization so choose, Nylander
will audition for the Leafs in the fall. "Hell definitely have a chance to make
our team," Nonis said. "[But] I really dont care how skilled you are, its very
difficult to make the NHL as an 18-year-old. I think itd be a long shot for him
to do that, but hes going to be given that opportunity and if hes good enough to
stick and play and contribute then we would keep him. If not, well decide at
that point whether its best to keep him over in North America or to have him go
back to Sweden to play in the Elite League." Nylander boasts a "VERY high
ceiling" according to Mark Seidel, chief scout for North American Central
Scouting, but has been trailed by attitude questions, something Nonis brushed
aside as outward confidence. Like most draftees, the new Leaf prospect will have
to get bigger and stronger before he is likely to make the leap to the NHL,
additionally requiring some acclimation to the North American ice surface. "It
may take him a month to acclimate, it might take him over a year – I dont know
that," said Nonis. "But the skill-set is very high end."
