I think the point was he should not have been allowed to. He should have been scratched for his long term benefit.
you’re not telling a star player to sit if he wants to play. That’s not how it works lol, every other star player in every sport plays through injury. Especially those who want to win, Matthews is no different and I respect that a lot
Saner heads must prevail, players want to play I get it. In the end saner heads must prevail. The only reason he would be playing is if he was told he couldn't damage it anymore. Otherwise it's just negligence on the team's staff in my opinion.

Agreed, don’t get it. I know they like to do it for full salary on the days they’re up but it’s potentially hurting the kid’s development

Defeat does not rest lightly on their shoulders
Like you said if there were long term ramifications then he probably wouldn’t play. But the team can’t force anyone to do anything. I personally see it as a good thing he is trying to play through the injury. The best players in the world all do so and it shows his dedication to seeing this team win. It shows that they are thinking about the present and the great opportunity they have this season.

That's what I meant. People are worried that Matthews is not right. It would make me definitely feel better if he can have a good game. We need him to play great. I did not mean that anybody would be angry at him.
Not sure what the numbers mean, but Hyman and Ehlers are certainly having themselves a season
If you know how to work technology and an Android box/Amazon fire stick, it works well. You need at least 40mbs internet speeds. I've been told 10mbs works but I get lagging with 40mbs. The lagging isn't much, just when there is a lot of devices using the internet at once, and it's no different then the lag you sometimes get with cable or satellite anyways.
And if you ever want to try it. ApolloTV offers 10 days for free.

Alright, my guess is that it is not a big deal and he can't hurt himself any further.
Wonder how teams stop players from playing when they have a concussion.? Use to be I'm going in coach.... Not anymore.

This is true but we'll be getting plenty of read on them, we're going to see them in the next few months until we're sick of it.
It's what they were saying about this inter-division stuff, they're not even rivalries, it's like "ugh, can we just play somebody else?"

True. Jumbo starts on the first line.
By the end of the game hopefully Matthews and Marner will be 22+ minutes and Jumbo around 14:30-16 mins.

Win or lose, the Leafs' skaters should massively outplay Winnipeg's skaters. The only understandable way for them to lose is just being unable to solve Hellebuyck
