William Nylander’s contract impasse with the Toronto Maple Leafs has ended. The restricted free agent signed a six-year deal Saturday, just before the 5 p.m. deadline. The deal is worth $10.2 million this season and $6.9 million a year the rest of contract. Nylander, a Calgary-born Swede, and the club had been at odds on the terms of a new agreement after his entry-level contract expired July 1, ultimately forcing the 22-year-old winger to miss 26 games. Nylander is coming off back-to-back 61-point seasons, including a 2017-18 campaign that saw him score 20 goals . . . Washington Capitals forward Tom Wilson won’t face any supplemental discipline from the NHL Department of Player Safety after he was ejected from Friday night’s game against the New Jersey Devils for an illegal check to the head, a person familiar with the situation confirmed to the Washington Post.

MISCELLANY

IOC to study human rights

The International Olympic Committee has set up an advisory committee on human rights chaired by Zeid Ra’ad al-Hussein, the former UN high commissioner for human rights.

IOC president Thomas Bach said at meetings in Tokyo that ‘‘human rights standards’’ will be included in Olympic host-city contracts, beginning with the 2024 Games in Paris.

Bach was asked if the committee would look at human rights in China, where the ruling Communist Party has been criticized for the internment of hundreds of thousands of Muslims in western China.

Beijing is the host of the 2022 Winter Olympics, and spent $40 billion to hold the 2008 Olympics.

Bach said the IOC would not question China because it ‘‘has not the mandate nor the authority to solve the human rights problems’’ that are clearly ‘‘political issues.’’
