I will admit you never outright called Matthews a choker, what I have said you are inferring he is not a big game player, by using that to justify placing them both above Matthews. Which I think given all the evidence is absolutely ridiculous, the only worry is if guys melt down under pressure, there is no evidence of that with Matthews (see Karl Malone or Chris Webber), he has stepped up before. The championship game argument from this year is absolutley ridiculous, because the reasons one played in a final and the other didn't largely came down to the contributions of their teams 2nd line, which you continually ignore. All 3 went pointless in the semi finals. Matthews had the exact same amount of goals as Laine in the elimination portion of the U-20 WJC, which again, you continually ignore and then changed the argument to championship games.
Okay, this is getting ridiculous, you've gone back to edit posts where you were factually incorrect, but never even admitted it, then are on my case about changing or not acknowledging things. What I did say was comparing what Matthews did at 17 to what Puljujarvi did at 17 at the U-18 WJC, the other thing I did was compare the performance of Matthews at 16 to what Laine and Puljujarvi did at 16 in the gold medal game. I did reference he beat them the only time they played straight up. I will highlight the blow, so you don't try to take my words out of context again.
And finally, when you were factually incorrect, not only did you not admit you were wrong, you just went back to change the post, like when you said I was comparing Matthew's at 17 to Puljujarvi, thankfully, I quoted what you said before you went back and edidted. So ya, I don't think you intend to have an honest discussion like you claim. You twist facts in a ridiculous way, argue on the fringes and don't even own up when you are wrong. Here's the post where I quoted what you said, which you have now edited.
