@Mrb1p you’re hilarious, you keep pissing in the wind and trying to convince me it’s just rain lol you don’t have to rate Mike Matheson.

But I promise you NHL teams would value a player like Matheson, playing on a better team in a role he’s more suited for and at his very affordable salary.

I think you’ve got this grand illusion that teams are filled with amazing top 4 Dmen, but if you actually came up for air from your Habs bunker once in awhile, you’d realize that there’s a shortage of this type of Dman in the NHL (before you get all hot and bothered, I'm talking about the profile of player, not necessarily the player himself)

You’ll be aight though 😂

Teams are filled with adequate top 4 defenders. Matheson is not adequate.

He will escape blame as usual cause he is the best of a bad bunch. At least according to some.

Most of his issues are usually self inflicted. He is pretty much Hutson but way older making the same mistakes

ngl "Step out of your Habs bunker man" to defend Matheson is very funny considering you put on any other game from any decent team and some guy with an EANHL-generated name is making none of the mistakes Matheson does, and he's skating twice as hard, and their best players are on PP1

Funny when I watch I see differently and when I go on other team boards I see the same shit being said about their Dmen, so go figure.


Also i’m not defending him.

He's not playing well, never said otherwise, just don't agree he's the trash, worthless Dman he's often portrayed to be.

He's on pace still for 60 points, so whatever value he had last season should still be retained into this off-season, but...

f***ING TRADE HIM.
The thing is if we trade him, and I wish we will to get something in return, we will have nobody to take the hit on the big minutes. You cant throw young D man under the bus, it will be bad for their development. Just like Ottawa and Buffalo do since 8 years. If we trade Matheson it has to be for a good return, for example a number 4RD or a very good draft pick+an established D man.

Im sick of Matheson running pp1 with all the mistakes he does, hes a 4 or 5th D man on a good team.

Habs need a RHD so Guhle can shift over to his natural left side, he can take those minutes for 5 on 5 and PK. Hutson can take the PP1 duties while Guhle gets the PP2.

It will be a great test to see if Guhle can actually be a number 1

That's how I see it for his minutes being filled.

Like another poster stated on the gdt, Matheson makes me miss Brisebois, but its not all his fault, St Louis has half the blame.

with 39sec left Matheson strength is skating with the puck give on a PP or 6 on 5 when everyone is stationary I rather have Xhekaj slap shot.
Also people will shit on Matheson but we were losing the game before he got fell and lost the puck, that isn’t the turning point… that 3rd goal should have been tripping in the NJ zone… we just seem to have the worst luck every thing that goes wrong also seem to end up in the back of the net…
