They have contributed as much as the 2nd line to winning...

I don't think the first line has been good by any means, but they are both even.

I don’t know I agree on even, but I do think what Matthews and Marner are doing is being somewhat underappreciated.

Tavares had a 2 minute shift... just stayed out there once the puck went into the offensive zone. He must be gassed. Good effort from him. I mean, it kept Marber off the ice, so...
Centre takes off a centre, a centre leaving puts on a centre same follows for wingers

It's been that way since Peewee

On the scoreboard, it is even... that's all I am saying.

2nd line has been 5x as good offensively and 2x as bad defensively... top line has sucked, but they are both even.
 
On Laughton hit just watch how guy glanced over and saw him and then protected himself with both arms against the glass, but acted as he was shot from shotgun. SN panel has no clue. It was obvious embellishment.
That's what I thought the ref might see. He gave him his numbers, prepared for the hit to draw the penalty.

Refs have seen thousands of hits, they know the difference and the steps. Going to the dressing room and then returning 4 minutes later didn't help his cause tbh

You mean Matthews best playoff hoccey occurred away from him lol
Funny, because outside of Game 2 against Boston last year, I can't remember a dominant Matthews playoff performance. Most of the time, he looks exactly like he does right now, no matter what linemates he has.
