Maple Leafs' William Nylander: Out Saturday with upper-body ailment

Nylander will not play Saturday against the Capitals due to an upper-body injury.

Analysis:

While it's unclear what the nature of the ailment is, the team is listing Nylander as day-to-day so the injury could be minor. The 20-year-old up-and-comer has notched 15 points in 20 contests this season and combined with fellow playmaker Auston Matthews, making the Leafs one of the league's more young and formidable forces in the NHL.
