William Nylander is very superstitious, or he forgot to do laundry.
The Toronto Maple Leafs forward kept his same style for Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Second Round against the Florida Panthers on Wednesday, wearing the same suit for his third straight game after he scored in his previous two.
Sportsnet cameras caught Nylander walking into the arena looking suave, in the same beige suit and white dress shirt that he wore before Game 6 of the First Round against the Ottawa Senators and Games 1 and 2 against the Panthers.

Nylander didn’t dare change a thing before Game 2, proving his superstitions true when he notched a goal in the second period to tie the score 2-2.
