After a rough game against the Seattle Kraken on Saturday,
Anthony Stolarz had some harsh words for his Toronto Maple Leafs teammates.
This included forward William Nylander, who at one point, made a very bad play that resulted in a goal against in overtime. Stolarz's pointed comments were a shock, although fans appreciated them.
William Nylander and Anthony Stolarz hash it out
Today at practice, Nylander was asked about his goaltender's comments and whether or not there were going to be problems going forward.
Nylander was honest but measured about the situation, noting that Stolarz is a good guy and that they have worked it out behind the scenes.
It's all good. Look, we're teammates. He's a great guy. There's nothing that we need to, you know, talk about here. Yeah, he talked to me after & it's all good. It's been no issue since.
Anthony Stolarz also spoke about his comments, noting that he had a conversation with Nylander, and that everything is fine moving forward.
I pulled Willy aside, we had a conversation. He's someone I admire and someone I respect deeply he pushes me, I push him. We're a family in here and we're looking to push each other and get to our ultimate goal at the end of the day.
At the end of the day, the Maple Leafs cannot stand to have big chemistry issues going forward. They need everyone to be on the same page.
If they are not on the same page, then are going to be a lot of issues on the ice that could result in a hell of a lot more losses.
With the New Jersey Devils coming up tomorrow, there is no denying that the Toronto Maple Leafs will be looking to put on quite the show, and make good on their promise to their goaltender.
