Its 7.5
He has been playing much better, good to see.
But overall, hes our 4th best forward at present time.
Could that change, yes its possible.

6.9. Nylander being the 4th best forward is great

- ClarksonDavid

Shows how talented this team is. And presently, he is the Leafs best forward in terms of actual performance recently.

It's 6.9 on the cap. All that matters.

And he looks better than Marner right now. Every since his idiot agent puled that stunt he's been crap/
- RogerRoeper

Ah sh!t yes that is correct. My bad. I kept thinking it was 7.5.
Marner still has 15pts in the past 20 games.
6pts the past 10 games. A drop, agreed
Not bad. But at times he has been a little off but still provides some great plays almost every game.
The past week, willie has looked great. Aggressive, hard on the puck, lots of effort.
But still only 5 pts in the past 10 games.
Needs to get his scoring touch.

He also needs to play more. Same with Johnsson.

We lost in OT...
- RogerRoeper

Hyman scored a goal.

Stop whining.

Since the Muzzin trade:
Rielly 22:51
Hainsey 19:40
Gardiner 19:38
Zaitsev 19:02
Muzzin 18:43
Dermott 15:57


"Great trade because now it'll bump Hainsey down"

Hyman scored a goal.

Stop whining.
- Santo_44

Matthews scored a goal and is on pace for over 40 goals in only 68 games...

He was not on the ice in OT...He played over 5 minutes less than in the Rangers game despite Kadri being hurt...

Imagine if Willy was getting 17 minutes instead of the 13 he's been getting at times the past 2 weeks.

But 39 year-old Patrick Marleau needs his minutes to destroy every line he's on.

This coach needs to go to a team full of grinders and lacking talent.

Matthews sucked for the first two periods.

A message was hopefully sent.

Again quit your whining. Take a break from it ffs.

You do realize a lot of these forwards get ice time from the PK right ?

Agreed.
I feel babs babs needs to play our young stars more.
In time hopefully he does.
But only so much time available

So Babcock for Julien?

How come Hyman, Marleau and Brown can suck and there never a message sent?

There was only 1 shift in OT.

Leafs had 4 powerplays against the Rangers, none last night. More powerplays = more ice time for Matthews.

For your female doging about Hyman’s ice time. He plays on the Tavares line during EV, and kills penalties. More penalties = more ice time for Hyman.

Your retarded hate on Babs for ice time use age is, well, retarded.

Do I really need to explain this?

Matthews expectations are much higher. His performance is just on that.

He should not be on Tavares' line. He is a bottom 6 forward.

It’s getting pathetic.

UG like. Same poop every day.

So we are going to hurt the entire team with a message? That makes no sense.

- RogerRoeper

Then Marleau...no wait, you hate him too. Then Brown? Lindholm? If Johnsson plays with Tavares then the Leafs don’t have a top-6 left winger to play with Matthews.


(frank), blow it up.

He was stuck to Matthews for 2 years. This guy is always going to be top 6 winger no matter what.

Hyman scored a goal.

Stop whining.
- Santo_44

In all fairness, Matthews should be playing more. He is currently 82nd in the league in TOI.

While penalty kill time factors in to some of the players above him, a lot of them it doesnt. They simply get more time, and more opportunities to produce.

I am not advocating playing him as much as McDavid, but he should easily have an average closer to 19+ mins a game based on his talent level IMO.

There are times where I dont understand why the 4th line is playing. Why play the 4th line with 3 minutes left in the game for example. I am a Babcock fan, but I do find him a bit too stubborn sometimes.
