I don't really care about playmaking if it comes at the cost of goalscoring. He's getting paid 8 million to be a lethal sniper. 40 goals and 65 points is a lot different than 25 goals and 65 points, you can find the latter a lot more easily for cheaper.
disagree, points are points dawg. he's being paid all that money to contribute, whether it's goals, assists, or anything else.

Did you not read my post? I’m only talking about offence Jesus Christ have another beer lol. Matheson is a stud in the O zone but a complete idiot when he over handles the puck. His power play production alone makes him worth every penny and he’s probably a discount
He has 14 points at 5v5 and Guhle also has 14 points. The rest of his points are OT/3v3 or PP.

Suzukis having a breakout season with Cole on his wing, so is Slaf. Theres one excuse for Cole and its the shoulder, anything else and its just being pathetic.

The league has never seen scoring this high in my life time and im 31. We need goals and we need them now.
We don’t need them now.

We need them three years from now. Cc having an off year is actually helping us. :laugh:

I mean youre also a Mathopologist, so youre no better.
Yeah saying that Matheson is playing too much is me being his biggest fan. Also 23 year old 8 million dollar Caufield is the same as 30 year old Matheson making less than 5 as a filler.

um 1st line is suddenly dominant and Cole gets no credit? that's the part I don't get.

Suzuki and Slaf are having great goalscoring seasons (relative to expectations) BECAUSE teams are prioritizing coverage on Caufield.

Finding a 40 goalscorer is a lot harder than a 25 goalscorer. The kid is supposed to score goals. 20 goals at 8 million for a sniper who will never be good defensively is not good.

You know the feeling when you love a team and there is this one player who just suck out any fun and joy from you.
This is Matheson for me. :facepalm:
I don’t get this.

I think he’s one of the most entertaining players we have. I don’t care so much about his mistakes because we’re rebuilding anyway. His offense is fun to watch and the man can skate. I think he’s actually fun to watch.

But if we were a contender? I’d have a stroke.

Caufield will always be this player guys. The problem is he's not scoring 40-50.

All the bad stuff is amplified when he's a 20-25 goal scorer.
