Puck drop was moved up by two hours in order to avoid a conflict with the Toronto Blue Jays, who host the Seattle Mariners in Game 2 of the American League Championship Series at 5:08 p.m. ET. With Scotiabank Arena just four blocks away from Rogers Centre, home of the Blue Jays, the area will be a sport\u2019s fan\u2019s utopia.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe city sure is buzzing, isn\u2019t it?\u201d Nylander acknowledged, breaking into a wry grin.<\/p>\n
His adopted city. Just the way he likes it too.<\/p>\n
Nylander was born in Calgary while his father, longtime NHL forward Michael Nylander<\/a>, was playing for the Flames. The family now lives in Stockholm, where William spends his offseasons.<\/p>\n In the process, among the things Nylander enjoys \u201csharing,\u201d to use his own word, is an inside look at his life both at and away from the rink, here and overseas.<\/p>\n As such, while some of his teammates might prefer to avoid the public eye in Toronto, he has no issues putting himself right in the middle of it. Whether it’s walking his dog through the downtown streets or occasionally taking the subway to home games, he\u2019s comfortable with it all.<\/p>\n To that end, he agreed for a second consecutive season to be one of the subjects for Prime Video\u2019s \u201cFACEOFF: Inside The NHL.\u201d From furniture shopping, to dining with dad Michael and brother Alex<\/a>, to being labelled \u201csoft\u201d by the Florida Panthers during the Stanley Cup Playoffs last spring, the 29-year-old displays his unflappable personality throughout.<\/p>\n \u201cI thought they did a pretty good job with it,\u201d Nylander said of the project, which features he and former Maple Leafs president Brendan Shanahan in Episode 4.<\/p>\n
