Quoting the Venerable Grapes, I think it kind of does make sense when you've got room full of "Alphas".

Pick the league and there's always a dude who is deferred to even the most incidental way because that's how hierarchies work; Defer to the best because you know you're not better and count outperform and so you defer in small ways that lead to big outcomes.

It looked like a bunch of hesitancy was unlocked when Matthews went down. Even the interviews were team focused in a way I hadn't seen since Quinn's time here.

I'm not saying you move Matthews...But...something's definitely up with our dynamic. And note: Marner looked fantastic during that time -- like pre-big money Marner fantastic.

Is infuriating a strong enough word here?
Matthews doesn't have that dawg in him, simple as that. He's not a gamer like Sidney Crosby, Nate MacKinnon or Kucherov. You will never win anything with this guy as your "go to". He is this era's Joe Thornton, which is amusing since he was "mentored" by him.
