Player Discussion Auston Matthews (Captain Edition)

[Phion Keneuf]

Should be resting if he’s injured instead of golfing.

Maybe a farewell golf outing with Mitchy.. doing what they do best.

Doubt either of their families were "poor", more likely middle-class. There are no poor kids in hockey in the GTA.

Yeah I’m pretty sure they were upper middle class growing up.
But there certainly are poor kids playing hockey in the GTA, but they are quality players and teams or leagues cover most of the tab, if not all. You are sort of correct though there are no poor, average or even above average players playing hockey in the gta.

Toronto will never win with Matthews as a captain. He thinks scoring satisfies the responsibility of being a captain and a leader.

Ha! I'd settle for him just scoring!

Four Nations was for a rare chance to represent his country...

Hey Auston, get back to work or Turkey and work on that hairline

He was injured all season but then goes to play in 4 nations instead of resting the injury? And why would 4 nations even let in an injured player in the first place??

And then won't even disclose what the injury is


It all makes sense..... right?

The media still giving this direspectful clown a free ride.

It's totally the same injury as the playoffs last year , which means it is chronic not good.
I think it is a back injury .
The good thing is his contract is up in 3 yrs.
This time his greed worked against him.

Why did not one ask him to elaborate on the "passengers" remark on Monday? Or did I miss that?

I wish they could give the captaincy to Tanev
