Personally I saw through his bullshit from day 1... Never liked him dating back to his Detroit days.
Is Auston Matthews the best player in the world ?

So essentially for an entire seasons worth of games now we have McDavid only holding the edge in powerplay assists and points, and Matthews is as good or better in every other offensive category and better defensively. Somehow I still don't think Matthews is better though... but the argument for Matthews is pretty sound and far from crazy like some like to put it.

Defeat does not rest lightly on their shoulders
Well if he’s not 1 in my opinion he’s a close 2nd
But man o man that Mcdavid is one hell of a hockey player ...
Wow , there’s so many incredible elite players in the league now
There used to be 1 only on maybe maybe Half the teams , now there’s at least one on most and sometimes 2, 3, and 4
I must say these athletes now in hockey and other sports , but in hockey are amazing
Pretty outrageous stuff. Real Mario vs Wayne stuff, actually. Never thought I'd see it again.

The best player in the world will be the player who leads the leafs to the cup.
If he does it, he will be a legend

It’s awesome to win the cup no questions about it , but in hockey especially , where you require mountains to be moved with a entire team and so much more
It’s gruelling and extremely special
Now there’s both sides as extremes like The pocket rocket Richard and the road runner,those on that rare earth
There’s the other side and please don’t tell me that these players aren’t great , cuz they are and

He’s top 5 easily. Probably top 2. I can’t even put him above McDavid, no matter how much of a homer I am.

Button thinks he's good defensively, he's the best scorer and he's unstoppable.

Title of best hockey player in the world still belongs to McDavid. Best goal scorer I feel the torch has been close to passing but has officially passed from Ovie to Matthew's this season.
McDavid, Matthew's, Marner, Drai and Mack.
I feel like that's the top 5 now and may be for a while, I know there are a lot of talented players in the league so some may come in and out of the top 5, but Matthew's and McDavid are there to stay for the next 5+ years. Imo.

I am taking Matthews over all others right now, even though McDavid is not from this planet. Matthews still developing into a total complete beast.

As our Leafs continue to blaze through their opponent’s , There could be a heated debate but I think AM scorches in 2 more goals tonight, staying hot against the flames as they crackle like kindling wood , dousing their playoff hopes .

Is a "heavy" shot just a 2021 term for a fast shot?
In the AS skills competition, is it the fastest shot or is it the heaviest shot? Same thing?

It's kind of a myth. Force = mass x acceleration.
Two pucks moving at the same speed have the same force. There's no mechanism for one to be "heavier" than the other.
A wobbling puck might hit with less force than a steady puck, but that's about it.
