Young William Nylander is on the board.
The prized Toronto Maple Leafs prospect, only 19, scored his first NHL goal on Saturday, going shelf blocker side on Ottawa Senators goaltender Andrew Hammond.
The goal comes in Nylander's fourth career game. It's his first point in the league, too, as he was held off the scoresheet in his first three games, recording seven shots.
But Nylander - admittedly a bit starstruck earlier in the week when the Maple Leafs visited the Washington Capitals - hasn't looked out of place in hockey's top league.
Finally, Maple Leafs fans have something to look forward to. And they'll get used to that display of skill easily.
