Decline is really a big word right hereq

Do you stalk me with your weird takes?

Yes, if you actually use your eyes for watching hockey instead of just for searching for very selective stats that, taken completely out of context, look like they support your view, you could see his decline.


Even playing mainly with a winger whose play and production have gone steading up the last few years, JT's stats are still going down, even according to your very limited criteria.

so for you the only reason why jt scoring basically at the same rate than he did his entire carreer last 5 years is Nylander... hahaha let's me laught

Eye test is nothing else than an opinion because you're seeing just what you want to see. When the player still producing at the same rate whatever who he had been playing with except his 1st year he played in toronto with marner and his production explode, normally its a good sign than your eye test is probably wrong.

sure you own opinion alone is a better criteria than what jt done last 14 year concretely

But i know you need to tell every body is dump to try to convince yourself than Nylander is even better

That’s how I can see the line up starting with Dewar and Minten injured.

Not a huge fan of the idea of Nylander and Domi on the same line. Also not a big fan of Matthews and Marner playing together, I’d rather split those two up to help our depth scoring.

 

[Mess]

What? How does that make any sense?

Any player making a double digit salary/AAV should be able to carry their own line.

Ideally that player is a Centre because their key building block positions. So strength down the middle.

Leafs have 4 players in the top 12 highest paid so 1 player per line to balance the offense.

I get that the core four should each be able to drive or carry a line, but I think that makes much sense across three lines.

There's only 48 minutes of ES time per game. How would you distribute those mlnutes across four line? How could it make sense to only give Matthews 12 ES minutes a night? How would it make sense to give any of these guys less than this?
