The two best players on the Toronto Maple Leafs are going to be playing against one another for the first time in over a decade, and one side is very excited for it.
Auston Matthews and William Nylander are representing their countries over at the 2026 Winter Olympics right now, and thanks to an unlikely series of events they are actually going to be playing against one another very early in the knockout stage.
Nylander's Sweden has been slightly underperforming after a big loss against rival Finland and not having enough of a goal differential to rocket up the standings.
