Apparently not everyone it’s just plain silly they’re not even producing I’m not sure why he’s hell bent on making the line up worst by making the first line better defensively ? Which I’m not even sure it’s that those guys let a few goals in playing together this season hasn’t been great
Good question

Old man Patches is up to speed lol.
Ha ha, right! Yea, I should have thrown a "/s" in there I guess.

Funny thing with Matthews is that he has been playing very perimeter and avoiding most contact... yet, in OT in NJ he can carry a guy on his back to the net and score. So which is it? Is he hurt? Lazy? Uninterested? Weighed down by the C?

He looks off and not a lot of jam.

So what happened on that Germany trip then?
I am sure he went for further diagnosis and treatment. Probably found out he cannot make it worse by playing with it, and it's up to him to manage the pain. I have no idea if any of that is true, but I would bet a significant amount on it being true.

Nothing consistent for sure, couple spurts here and there.

Okay let's see some commitment to our game this period. Too much speed through the neutral zone.

Yeah it feels like Matthews from 2 years ago. Still should be able to find a way to be a decent effective player but not in the tier of the elite players in the league like he was in his 2 60 goal seasons.

In fairness they were pretty terrible against Florida in the game before Matthews came back.
That’s where the streak started for me.

It really started when he scored 69 goals then went hard against Detroit into the boards
He hasn't looked for about 30 games now
