Is Matthews the worst playoff performer ever?

Some games he looks good in the neutral/defensive zone even in tight playoff games. Having said that, he is a non-factor in the O-zone for what he is perceived as. He really needs to find a way to bring some offense in these games. He had that one goal last game, but it was kind of fluky

Matthews is nowhere near Draisaitl caliber let's be real, he's more in the mold of Alexei Yashin, Rick Nash, Joe Thornton or Jason Spezza.

Danault is much better tbh

 

[I am not exposed]

Not even the worst playoff performer on this current team.

That would be Marner

Just coming around to say Matthews should muffin roth in switzerland where he belongs

 

[The Winter Soldier]

No one will remember his goal in game 6, more will remember how noticeably a non factor he was in a game 7, again.

Matthews is a good regular season player, downright awful playoff performer.

Big moments and he dips, Trevor Linden he ain’t.

You are correct but the minute regular season starts and Matthews starts padding stats people will rank him above guys like Barkov. lol.

 

[Devilsfan992]

He's up there, yes.

Manbear Pig always nowhere to be Found

 

[nbwingsfan]

Worst do or die player in the NHL for sure

 

[Jay26]

I just can't believe a scorer as prolific as him looks so useless in the playoffs.

 

[Breakers]

You could be Matthews biggest fan but even then you would admit this was an embarrassing performance

 

[DelZottoHitTheNetJK]

He's not that guy pal. He's simply not that guy. Zero dawg in him. For lack of a better word, he's a talented p***y. That's not a bad thing to be if you're trying to make a lot of money. It's not great if you care about winning

 

[nickdawg95]

He's gotta be dealing with an injury right'?

 

[Sasha Orlov]

He's gotta be dealing with an injury right'?

Yeah he’s allergic to the playoffs

 

[Sheppy]

Another brilliant elimination game for 34

 

[RiverbottomChuck]

Yeah he’s allergic to the playoffs

Why would he want to take his 13.5 mil a year to Raleigh in May when he go to Mykanos for all of June and July?

 

[Relapsing]

Matthew's post game... He sounds broken. Saying there were too many passangers

 

[crowfish]

I am still salty that this fraud stole an MVP from McDavid

9 straight years playing in the postseason and his career high is 11 pts... What a joke.

 

[LosPollosHermanos]

 

[oilexport]

Wow - gutless

 

[EpochLink]

He keeps on getting away with shitty playoff performances and the fans/media eat it up saying 'it's not his fault'. They have the scapegoat in Marner who will take the heat, along side Tavares.

Yeah, not this time. If the media wants to compare him to McDavid or Draisaitl, he has to be more of a big game player in the post season.

How the heck do you come out and say there's too many passengers when you had one goal the entire series as the highest paid player in the league?
