I've always been a good fan of doubling down on this kind of stuff. Matthews and Nylander as the dynamic 1-2 punch in the coming years :)

Don't like to hope Nylander becomes that, basically putting all of our eggs in 1 basket that way.

Oh I can get behind that idea! So long as there's no discredit to Nylander being an elite prospect with elite center potential. :)

Go with a
JVR - Matthews marner
Xxx-Nylander-kadri

Makes me wonder though if getting Matthews would make Nylander a better or worse player over his career.

IF, big if, we get Matthews - I would like to develop properly. Keep him and Nylander on 2nd/3rd line mins.

Have atleast 1 vet on each line. Let them learn and grow.
I actually really like that lineup, would be exciting next year. The vets remain locked, and young C's + W's can rotate around to find chemistry - would be a good way to get them comfortable.

I think if we landed both of them as centres, 1 of Bozak/Kadri stays, the other one departs for defense help.

JVR-Matthews-Marner (in the future) would be sweet

Not sure who figures to be Nylander's wingers long term

We certainly have a lot of wingers in our prospect pool (Leivo, Timashov, Brown, Lindberg, Johnson, Kapanen, and Bracco). I am hoping we can answer that internally.

Going to the game tonight, Marner vs. Dermott.

I've been pretty down lately, so I'm excited to go tonight.

This is a must see game .. Looking forward myself as London verses Erie is always a great battle of 2 of the best teams in the OHL..

I'll watch the Leafs on TV and Marner verses Strome on the laptop.

Yup. I had to get tickets for this game, couldn't pass up the opportunity to see my 2 favourite prospects in a very important game with my favourite team.

My little girl wants to go to Real Sports, may try the $28 Chicken Wings.

Fingers crossed, the Stubhub gods will smile on me and this will be the last game I'll have to attend this year.

Unless you're getting 30 wings (3 lbs), that seems a little ridiculous for wings lol.

Marner has faced Dermott 3 X this year already and Travis has held him in check.

Marner has 1-3-4 points in the 3 games (goal coming EN).
