How many times did you say if he has another good year you'll move him up the ladder? How many times did you say we haven't seen enough of him......looks like you did say it. - burn
I said if he has another great year he'll move up, pretty simplistic, no? That would mean better than last year.
I didn't say he has to have another great year. That would imply he was equally as good as players I have ahead of him, which obviously imo he wasn't. |

I agree. Matthews is not Crosby or McDavid.
He has alot of hardware to bring home before he can be considered in their class. - systemtool
he does have that potential though |

level 1
McDavid, Crosby
level 2
P Kane, healthy Stamkos, healthy Malkin
level 3
about 15-30 players any given night including Matthews and Eichel - homiedclown
Matthews is level 2.
You're being silly if you can't see that. As silly as leaf fans saying he's as good as or better than Mcdavid. |

Remember when Toews was apparently the best player in the league...? - lumlums
I was actually going to mention that little gem but thought it may not get recognised in here. it's been a while since I heard that argument & well his play had descended into the deep depths of winsix mind. (I'm kidding......). (About the moon). |

He is a Hall of Fame player after 1 year. I get it.
McD is not as good because he hasn't got the same 200 foot game as Matthews. I get it.
Sid is old, Matthews is young. I get it.
Matthews has nothing more to prove. I get it.
It's just when goals were brought up before there was no comparison to anything else. And funnily enough it was only goals & not points. The Hart wasn't mentioned either. But I'm sure our latest Hall of Famer will win them all this season (if he plays, he doesn't have to ). - Aussiepenguin
Matthews was first with game winning? First with Jesus can't remember how many even strength goals second in scoring. And Babcock weren't let him go! Hr had to play a 200 ft responsible game! If he was able to just go he would of put up way more goals imho |

time will tell
eichel had a much better ppg in year 2 on a bum leg
not comparing the 2, but it will be interesting to see how matthews responds in year 2 on a roster with a much better top 6 then what jack has.
If Matthews puts up say 80 points in this season, give or take pending games played, perhaps

Too early to say yet for sure - either way - different skill set, McDavid is faster, Matthews has great hand eye co-ordination. Need more data to make a fair comparison.

So again, Schiefele moves up ahead of Matthews after one year that is comparable to Matthews.... But Matthews needs to have another year to move up the ladder.
Some guys have one year (in their 4th season) and move up and others and other guys have years comparable to that guy and yet aren't concidered to be as good as that guy until he has a second year?
You're tripping over your Toronto hate. |

It would be funny if it wasn't so sad.
Kid buys a hat and shirt off the internet, and now he thinks he's actually achieved something that makes him superior to others. |
