Player Discussion Auston Matthews (Captain Edition)

[Larcos_Unal]

A healthy Auston is the best player I've ever seen on the Leafs and it's not even close.
He's also shown very little in the way of leadership skills and clutch performance that I want to see in our Captain.

Both things can be true sadly.

I want them to put him on LTIR until the playoffs.

Trade for C.

When Berube coaching style was only for half a season with stlouis and had RoR, Schenn, Tarasenko, Bozak, Perron, Parayko and Piet, you can win a cup. Berube coaching style for a full season with the softest core on earth aint winning crap.

Berube has one 7 game playoff series win in his coaching career.

So rest up so he’s good enough to play in 4 Nations and then after that the maple leafs get whatever version of Matthews is left. If he wants to set an example rest and don’t participate in 4 nations.

The route he chooses will show what his priorities are

The route he chooses will show what his priorities are

I think we already know what his priorities are based on his past two contracts and his play in general.
