No.
Only because Matthews has 1 year left compared to Stutzle at 7 (?)
If Matthews gets his deal, then it might changed based on how much he costs, but I imagine it will be the top contract in the league when it's signed

We were right there
Yeah contracts and age a big factor here
Not for Austin, but maybe for Auston

Yeah, I think it’s very likely the Leafs re-sign him, but you have to think he’ll point to last season and demand at least MacKinnon’s $s.

Funny that he can't spell his first or last name correctly.

No because Matthews has only a year left and is going to sign for too much money and term and he cannot stay healthy

Yeah at least, but I'm thinking towards 14.
As of today, I'd say Matthews is the better player. However, is he 6-7 mill per better ? Not in my opinion..
For anyone else like me, I thought Stutzle was on his signed contract already, but he's not, so he's got 8 years left with the sens..
That was like 70% of leaf Nation for the 1st 4 years he was there...

He's quite obviously trolling leafs fans on Twitter. He occasionally does that. He intentionally made those mistakes.

7 years of Stutzl at 8.35
VS
7 years of Matthews at 13 Million? 14 million? 15 million?
I go Stutzl and Matthews it he better player today.

I understand that he's trying to troll and get attention, but I didn't read his tweet and think 'oh he intentionally got his name wrong, just for the lulz'. Just seems like he doesn't know how to spell.

If I could guarantee Matthews re-signs then absolutely. When healthy, he's at least a 50 goal scorer and ppg+ player. Do people really think Stutzle is better or is this more of a contract thing?

I don't know. He has spelt it every way but correctly in the past.
This being my favorite

Lol yeah just seems like he's not too bright.
Stutzle is pacing for 43 goals and 91 points this year and is 21. I'd say Matthews is still better, but at 21, Stutzle has more room to improve and the contract uncertainty around Matthews is a deal breaker IMO.

I get the troll angle. But it's an easy cop out when you have nothing important to say.
But then again. He got a response and trolls rarely lose , in that regard.

Is his Ceiling as high as Matthews' though? Maybe I'm wrong but I consider Matthews's season this year to be more of an anomaly than the norm. His past 3 seasons were pretty consistent as far as his pace is concerned. I expect him to rebound next year
Fair question. Who knows. A 91 point pace at 21 years old is nothing to sneeze at, and the way Ottawa is going, he should have talent to play with. For comparison, when Matthews was 21 he had 73 points in 68 games, an 88 point pace.
8 years of control on a reasonable contract is a nice perk too.

Stutzle's age and contract tip this to him, even if Matthews is arguably the better player.

What does Austin Matthews have to do in the next year of his contract for us to win a Stanley Cup? Go a goal a game through the regular season and playoffs?
I love the player but he’s not going to do that, and I’m not convinced we’re a lock for the cup even if he does.
We got a great group of Americans here but I think it’s as close to a lock as possible that he would be leaving the following year.

One slight correction. Stutzle is still on his ELC, so 8 years left at 8.35

Yes, but Austin's new contract kicks in when Stutzle has 7 years left. I think. And that contract will be HUGE.
