William Nylander goes viral for laughing during national anthem

While the crescendo continues to build up toward a potentially massive contract extension for Toronto Maple Leafs forward William Nylander, the Swedish forward himself has gone viral on social media for his actions prior to last night’s game at Honda Center against the Anaheim Ducks. 

The Ducks employed the musical talents of guitarist Dave Hill for the Canadian and American national anthems, and he gave each of them a little extra pizazz. Cameras caught Nylander on the bench with a king-sized smirk on his face, though it didn’t come off as laughing at the guitarist but rather enjoying the rendition. 

Hill himself would catch wind of Nylander’s reaction, and needless to say, he enjoyed it!
