Jim Hughson is a canuck's fan dog lolthe commentary team has really bothered me sugar coating his play.
Hearing Jim Hughson overstate everything he did all game was nauseating.
“The Bruins are all over the Leafs but HERE COMES AUSTOOOON MATTHEWWWWWS.....(does nothing) ...the puck goes the other way and AUSTON MATTHEWWWWWS ...gets checked.”
Craig Simpson’s “isn’t it? Wasn’t it? Shouldn’t it? “ is getting so annoying too.
He does need to be better, but I'm not sure if he is fully healthy. Nylander needs to be better as well. Same with JVR. At least Marner picked up a couple of points.

Another Oilers fan that starts a thread to try to boost his new own narrative, I’m shocked.
Not at all, he's probably the least biased announcer aroundOh I’m aware but since being with HNIC doing the leaf games he’s been told to cater to your audience...clearly.
Looking at Bergeron vs Matthews 5v5, corsi is 6 for Bergeron 7 for Matthews, so Matthews actually winning in corsi. 5 of those 6 corsi are high danger scoring chances though, with Matthews having 0. That's a pretty big issue, when you lose 5-0 in high danger scoring chances 5v5.
If Matthews gets no points and the series goes five, three more, then eichel will have finished with more points then Matthews in the same amount of games played, on a team that scored nearly a hundred less goals.

Matthews really showing his leadership skills by saying "**** happens" when asked about the 20 point performance by the Beats Per Minute line. How about taking some responsibility and recognizing that it's your teams job to shut those guys down. And they want this guy to wear the C. Not anytime soon if they have any sense.
If it’s a new narrative then how are you shocked?
Matthews is going up against the one of the best defensive player and against a very good team.
Greatest of all time? Really? Greatest in the NHL right now perhaps
He's not. He's arguably in the top 5.
Well Bergeron and those guys have shut down Crosby and made him invisible too. Matthews is gonna need to adjust, and if he can't it's gonna be a short series.Maybe they will.
I expect him to be better at home.
Series isn’t over.
I just don’t think he played a good first two games at all. Even leaf fans were saying he was invisible.
Nice of you to drag Eichel into a Matthews thread.
Matthews avg TOI/G: 18:08
Eichel avg TOI/G: 20:09
Matthews avg PP Time/G: 2:09
Eichel avg PP Time/G: 3:44
So Eichel with 5 more games + about 2 more minutes of ice time a game was able to outproduce Matthews by .. 1 point. That with having an average of 1 minute 45 seconds more of PP time each game.
He's a great player don't get me wrong, but don't try and put Matthews down to meet your own agenda.
Doors that way --->

*realizes Matthews is shitting the bed*That loves McDavid, how were his playoffs last year? Hot take: He wasn’t good
Eichel hasn't even been ppg in his 3rd year in the league lmfao.
The reason why Matthews is struggling this year and he didn't last year- Washington had nothing resembling Bergeron, which is why the Leafs never looked completely out of sync.
Cmon, no way can you say that the 2 games he just played were "bright spots". Only a homer could think that.Honestly, he's been one of the few bright spots in the two games. Whole team was flat in the first, but when Kapanen and Johnsson were put on his line, they dominated their shifts. 17-2 shots for whenever Matthews was on the ice. Can't do much else when your goalie lets in 3 goals on 4 shots.
*realizes Matthews is ****ting the bed*
"well I better start *****ing about McDavid. Thats what I'm good at"

In no way was that preformance good, especially by a teams #1C.
