I would say so now after of the 2 he actually was able to elevate his game in the playoffs - when it matters
Laine + Mcdavid would be by far the best duo in the league....
Or put him with playoff Drai, jeeezz
True, although what really made me choose Laine was that he's a righty. Mcdavid can feed Laine one-ts on the pp all day long whereas with Matthews one of them would be off handedI mean Matthews is just as good if not better of a scorer and gives you so much more. Still makes sense to take Matthews and put him with McDavid like at the worlds where they dominated.
matthews is a landslide. all things being equal, edge goes to the C
so far Am34 has 4g/6pts though while Laine has 1g/2pts..so its not equal
Just like Jets fans always used the sample size how Laine was better since he was 7 months younger than Matthews.Buh......wuh.......sample sizes man!

That's not the only goal Matthews has scored on his offhanded side and this one was scored at 5v5.Matthews play his offhanded side on the PP already not an issue.

It was my attempt at a sarcastic reply because during their rookie seasons I always read the excuse from Jets fans how Laine was better since he was 7 months younger, even though that sample size did not mean anything.What? That's not even a sample size? That's just age difference. What?
The first line is whatever line Matthews is onNope, not breaking up the 1st line.
Somehow i knew that post was coming though
Or you can pick Matthews and play him on wing... Or as the 1C since he is probably better than both of your elite centers...And yeah this really comes down to team need. If you already have 2 elite centers, then you can plug in Laine and reap the reward. If you're like 75% of the teams in the league that don't have an elite 1C, you go Matthews.
I thought Mark Scheifele is why Winnipeg made the Conference Finals, where as Laine was just along for the ride.Gotta take the guy who's proven he can take his team to the Conference Finals. AM is great but keeps getting bounced in the first round.
