Since Matthews was thought of as the 13th forward he didn't even start playing with McDavid until later on in the tournament.
What Matthews did in the 2016 World Cup still took place before his NHL debut against Ottawa.
And what does that have to do with Matthews pre draft hype? Honestly at this point I know that you know the mistake you’re making at you’re just intentionally being dishonest.
Or like trying to compare stats from 2 different players from 2 different years right?
I posted all of the tournaments and leagues that they both played in. Matthews produced better in every one, just like I said.
Then explain these tournaments and league stats then. I don't see how your claim is accurate at all.
I have already explained it multiple times; you know full well what you're doing wrong. The stats you are posting are incomplete and specifically cherry picked to paint a misleading picture. You are comparing prospects at completely different stages of development to suggest the older one is better, which is not how you compare prospects. I have posted their full stats. Matthews has been better everywhere at time of being drafted.
Did you even read your own quote?
How many times does it need to be shown to you this is false, are you just going to keep denying the stats posed. I would repost them, but by now I am sure you know what they are.
Yes, I did read my quote that made a correct factual statement. It doesn't need to be the exact same year for it to be the same league/tournament. They both played in the USHL, USDP, WHC-17, WJC-18, WJC-20, and the WC. Matthews outperformed Eichel in every single one, as I showed you repeatedly. You can't erase the majority of a prospects pre-draft history just because it shows you to be wrong.
Then if you did see your quote, and you did read the stats. You would know that it is impossible that Matthews outscored Eichel in every tournament and league they played in. I am not sure how a player with 7 points Matthews in the same tournament outscored another Eichel with 10 points, but here we are.
Because that's not the full stats for that tournament prior to being drafted. That's solely D-3 for 1 player and D-2 for another, which is incredibly misleading.
This virtually has nothing to do with what we are discussing. I am not sure why you quoted me on this.
That's it. And the stats showed the above was not true.
It's because some people hate it when a Leafs prospect does better than expected and there needs to be reasons why it's wrong.
No, that's exactly what is being discussed. USHL, USDP, WHC-17, WJC-18, WJC-20, and the WC are the leagues/tournaments that both played in. At time of being drafted, Matthews outperformed Eichel in every single one. He would have been drafted before Eichel.
Not really, I was discussing your quote. Which has certainly been proven to be incorrect. But whatever, carry on. I am sure you are going to do it anyway.
Yes, my quote discusses the USHL, USDP, WHC-17, WJC-18, WJC-20, and the WC, which are the leagues/tournaments that both played in before being drafted. Matthews outperformed Eichel in all of them.
