Would Matthews’ contract have been worth it if… (read OP)?

Idk about that. I took a gander at the Leafs board and seems there is like a 30/70 split for and against Matthews’ PO performances.

Regardless, if McDavid was under PPG in the POs I would be less than “fine” with him. But if being under PPG is “fine” for you, then well, Canada is a free country.

A lot easier facing the Kings and Ducks instead of the Dynasty Bolts, the Bruins and Panthers every year.

Sure, but not so difficult as to go from a 60 goal scorer to scoring at a clip equivalent to players making 6-7M per year. Also, there were the Habs and CBJ… And Boston’s top C this year was Coyle, the guy tasked with taking on Matthews. No disrespect to Coyle but uh isnt Matthews supposed to be top 10 player while Coyle is like what? Top 100?

And for McDavidseems you conveniently ignored 10 points against VGK and 7 points in 4 games against the Avs.
