Yup, rumor is he's going to get paid 11.5x8 soon. Good luck.Have you watched Nylander play this season?

He is the best Swede forward in the league. What do you expect him to get paid? He is an elite playerYup, rumor is he's going to get paid 11.5x8 soon. Good luck.
What does being a Swede have to do with anything? This is the 2nd thread you have brought that up..He is the best Swede forward in the league. What do you expect him to get paid? He is an elite player
He's, at his absolute best, kind of doing stuff Drai has been doing for a long time. One season (that is far from finished) doesn't erase the past few years for players around that age. And I say that as someone who believes Drai to be overrated.Have you watched Nylander play this season?
Drai and McDavid are 3 and 4 all time in playoff ppglol ok.
I am going to be totally honest with you, McDavid has been very average this season as well. What does he have like 14 goals? Neither of those two have looked very good, This season to be fair. I’m still giving McDavid the number one spot due to him being McDavid. As far as Drai concerned, not impressive at all.
Once again, you are dodging the question. I am talking about this season specifically, nobody’s living in the past here.Drai and McDavid are 3 and 4 all time in playoff ppg
No one is a goal per game player in the NHL for very long.He is a goal per game player when healthy. Since he’s started shooting the puck like he used to he has 14 goals and 20 points in 10 games
Last I checked the third round is better than the 2nd round (a place the Oilers have also been to 3 times instead of 1).He deserves it.
McDavid and the Oilers have had no more success in the playoffs than Matthews and the Leafs. neither team has done anything in the post season.

McDavid has done it three times.Look, if he wants to be mentioned in the same breath as Gretzky, Lemieux, Crosby, etc., he's gonna need to bring his team to the promised land. Matthews needs to do the same thing.
Everyone always craps on Matthews for his early playoff exits, but let's have a look. Matthews has completed seven seasons, so in their first seven seasons:
Matthews: 7 playoff appearances
McDavid: 4
Matthews: Advanced beyond the first round once
McDavid: Twice
If we're talking about team success, there's not really much here for either guy to brag about.
According to Leafs fans reactions after doing it for the first time in almost two decades and the first time of Matthews career? Yes.WOW! The second round! That's pretty much as good as a cup, right?
What does that make Matthews last season then?Matthews >>>>>>> Drai
Straight up, Drai has been average at best.
he did not have a good season. Everyone knows this with the wrist surgery. Only had 40 goals. That was last season though. This season he is back on route to his 3rd Rocket in 4 seasons. Best goal scorer in the business.What does that make Matthews last season then?

Best goal scorer of this generation. Pretty crazy the numbers he puts up.he did not have a good season. Everyone knows this with the wrist surgery. Only had 40 goals. That was last season though. This season he is back on route to his 3rd Rocket in 4 seasons. Best goal scorer in the business.
I agree that Draisaitl's having a terrible season. Not sure if it's injury-related or something else going on.lol ok.

For sure, Matthews had a bad season last year. He knows it, we all know it. Drai is having that this season this year so far.I agree that Draisaitl's having a terrible season. Not sure if it's injury-related or something else going on.
But everyone has bad seasons. Matthews had one last year, so you should understand.
Based on this year alone, and only this year, without considering the past five years, Draisaitl is barely a top-25 forward if even that. But looking over the last 6-7 years, he's a Top 5 forward, Top 10 at worst.
Can you imagine being in on pace for a 96 point season so far and people are saying you have been terrible this season.I agree that Draisaitl's having a terrible season. Not sure if it's injury-related or something else going on.

having 4 100+ point season, 3 50+ goal season, and having the second most total points in the entire NHL for almost a decade will do that....expectations are understandably high for him.Can you imagine being in on pace for a 96 point season so far and people are saying you have been terrible this season.
