All Things Auston Matthews

[Eat The Rich]

Ovechkin also had 9 goals in his first 5 games last year. Did that make him better than McDavid?

If Matthews finishes October with more than 10 goals, is he better than Ovechkin?

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

No, we just want it to be in one place. Fair?

No actually because if it was a Sabre or Shark or Mcdavid getting this coverage no one would say shit and you know it, but it's a Leaf so people complain

who is saying Matthews is better than McDavid?

 

[hockeeyyy]

Never forget the collective IQ of HFBoards is somewhere between a goldfish and a potted plant: Auston Matthews is overrated, but he's gonna get more than McDavid's contract.

Logic.

 

[SabresSharks]

Before McDavid was drafted didn't he say his favorite player was Bozak or something? I wouldn't be surprised if he's dying on the inside a little while watching Matthews have so much fun this year.

Nor would I. Such a dynamic talent, stuck on such a sad sack franchise.

With tavares getting a lot of the top d pairing of opposing team
Matthews is feasting on the bottom

 

[authentic]

Auston Matthews is our lord and saviour. Have you accepted him into your heart yet?

Let us pray.

The Gospel of Matthews is my favourite part of the bible.

Uhhhh, other way around. Teams are focusing their best players on Matthews line, not Tavares.

No. If Karlsson threads start popping up with the regularity of Matthews threads, most Sharks fans would be embarrassed, frankly.

One thread to rule them all, please.

 

[Varan]

Tons eh? Name 10 in the past decade to have a start like this.

where did I mention they had a start to a season like this? I said they have had hot streaks (could be any part of the season)

I think I saw maybe one or two, but that's all it takes around here.

No they wouldn't that's a lie]

Is Auston Matthews better than Connor McDavid? ... and the mailbag | The Star

What a gem. Bahahaha.

Did you even read it?

 

[SabresSharks]

Fix your post #63, @LEAFANFORLIFE23

You caught me, man. I'm a liar.

No time to stay and chat. I'm off to start a few dozen KARLSSON ROCKS!!! main board threads ...

 

[kp61c]

no wonder they are screwing nylander, the guy is going to hit the jackpot next year

So again, list these "tons" of players who have had these kinds of streaks in the last decade because I'm pretty sure that only a handful of very special players have ever looked this dominant at any time.

In a 2012 feature on TSN McDavid said his favorite player was Crosby.

Looks like a list of very special players that are few and far between. Thanks for further confirming how awesome this Matthews streak is.

 

[Rants Mulliniks]

Which coincidentally was higher than auston Matthews best goal total

I don't get it?

How are two people never hitting Matthews' goal totals "higher than Auston Matthews best goal total"?

 

[Oak]

I'm just happy the GOAT is American.

 

[Rants Mulliniks]

He's the best player of all-time, throughout the entire universe and every parallel universe. I know this because of the gross amount of Auston Matthews threads on HFBoards since Mid-September.

We get it, Leaf fans. He's one of the best players in the league on an incredible start. Trust me. WE GET IT.

Maybe you should ask non-Leaf fans to stop making Leaf threads?

 

[JeremyTB]

Anybody notice that no team has played a physical game against the Leafs yet. They pretty much let them do whatever they want. Leafs are not a big team. Time to put them on their asses which might start happening once they start playing some good teams. As early as this Saturday.

As a goal scorer, most definitely.

I'd love to see other teams abandon their structure to try to hit the Leafs. they're too smart to do that unfortunately
