Matthew is overrated by Leaf fans and now overpaid by Leaf management. He is a VERY good player but he's not THAT good - he is certainly not generational.
He's starts off season(s) like a house on fire and then lives off those early numbers as the season goes on. He can't stay healthy and he is not an every shift presences like Crosby or McDavid.
I also find he is always chasing the play.
Now, does he have a gift for being in the right place at the right time? Yes!
Does he have an amazing shot? Yes!
But let's not overrate the kid.
