Nice to see them breakdown Philly by the end of the second. This team deserves to be relegated like Anaheim. They’re a waste of Torts’ toxicity.

lol I forget where I read this but Kessel chirped JVR about this one time.

JVR just lightly slashed him to get his attention. and Kessel came up to him later and said 'don't forget who made your career' or something like that. it was all jokingly of course, they seem like bros.

I mean clearly Matthews this year is not playing like Matthews last year so this argument doesn't make sense to me to do this

The poster in responded to didn't say this year Matthews....were not even half way through the season after Mstthews won the Lindsay AND Hart and he has more even strength points, than Mcdavid...despite having a slow start. Also Mcdavid is often criticised for cheating on offense... While Matthews has been praised for his attention to playing on both side of the puck. Which is reflected in the team stats.

I'd argue Draisaitl is a better offensive player than anyone the leafs have with Matthews too.

Again..cant look at individual stats in a game as dependent on team play than hockey. Remember barzal looked like a mini Mcdavid as a rookie under weight.... But his stats dropped significantly with Trotz while his team found way more success because they played way better defensively.

I find people don't truly watch the game either, poster is complaining and saying it was fluke last year, Matthews again has taken another step in his own end and looks even better then before,

Improving on one side of the ice and getting worse on the other. Is that really improvement? Or is it a net neutral change

Matthews probably will shut me the f*** up, but as of now I’m finding his play lacklustre in the offensive zone. He shouldn’t drop 30 points in production for defence. Last year he was pacing for 120 and was good defensively. He should still be around 105 with great defence.

So either his ozone play is lacklustre or a fluke
