After all the talk about how Laine is the best goal scorer in his draft he's being outscored by a Matthews who hasn't hit 100% since his injury in 15 fewer games.

Will this finally dispel the myth that Laine is a better scorer than Matthews?

Scoring 20+ goals in a month and then going into hibernation for the rest of the season doesn't sound like a consistent scorer to me.

Thoughts?

Matthews was always clearly better but yeah. This is just a case of kicking a dude when he's down.
This...Matthews was always better.

As much as I hate the Jets, Laine is a quality player and will bounce back.

It has to be mental at this point with Laine. You don’t just lose that shot.
