Seems crazy but I'd take Pettersson. Matthews usually has a shot advantage in these polls, but he doesn't have much of one if one at all here

I think Pettersson will end up in the tier with MacKinnon just below McDavid

 

[wasunder]

Give me Matthews for now, but EP has the talent to prove me wrong.

 

[Future GOAT]

lol that was quick.

 

[Tage2Tuch]

9 games.

Clearly Pettersen.

Actually come to think of Mattheews first game he had four goals.

Give me two more games and that will be more then enough time to know.


Side note- Jesus, I voted Matthews and only
Three other people in 19 did. I think people need to settle down I’ve watched every Vancouver game this season (only two three teams I watch every game there one) and he’s looking godly but MY god it’s been 9 games! Mittlestadt looked godly after six games and look at him now. Lol (ps he’s still looking okay just not getting ice time or burying) but Pettersen is definitely in a higher class.

If you think Mackinnon is in another tier then Matthews and Matthews doesn’t have a chance here I don’t really know know what to say.....I mean....

After a decent rookie year Mackinnon had 38 pts in 68 games then a messily 52 and 53 in full seasons (which for a number one overall pick in a higher tier then Matthews is very Blah) before going crazy last year and being unreal. Same with this year. And guess what helped kickstart that? A guy who is leading the league in scoring, then there’s Landeskog who leads the league in goals, both of them KIND of help. He’s in the Same tier as MAtthews if anything. There are a number of centers who are having way better starts to their careers then Mackinnon who finally broke out with the help of those two. Suggesting he’s in a different tier then a player who controls the play on his own is nutty quite frankly.

They can be in the same tier I get that. Matthews is just below him in that tier then

Yeah maybe. I don’t really rate guys ahead of others if they’re in the same group because it can go back and forth and theirs disadvantages for some players whether it be libemates, ice time, injuries, special teams, etc but it’s all subjective really.

 

[Semantics]

Pettersson AINEC, he's as good as McDavid.

 

[BigTruzz]

Pettersson AINEC, he's as good as McDavid.

Then why'd you vote for Matthews?

 

[LordNeverLose]

Can't tell if people are f***ing high or just joking around with this poll. Matthews should win in a landslide.

 

[Blade Paradigm]

Elias Pettersson has 9 goals, 15 points in his first 9 career games and has the third-highest points-per-game average in the NHL.

 

[Binister]

For now Matthews. Let's wait how Pettersson sustains/develops his level.

Misclick and it won't let me change it now.

 

[bobholly39]

Yeah exactly

Not sure how serious people voting for Petterson are but ive actually always been pretty high on him so who knows if he doesn't blow it up and reach a crazy level that rivals Matthews.

But until he has a year under him and you get faith he can keep this up and become a better player than Matthews this shouldn't be close.

 

[Kaako Kappo]

Oh my f***ing god.

 

[LeafGrief]

This is the most HFboards poll of all time

 

[Conspiracy Theorist]

Matthews has trouble staying in the lineup so this could be Pettersson.

 

[Tad Mikowsky]

Oh cmon. I’m pretty critical of the overhyping Matthews gets, but how is he losing this?

 

[Rex Banner]

Matthews has trouble staying in the lineup so this could be Pettersson.

The Tanev of forwards.

 

[Holymakinaw]

LOL.

 

[SotasicA]

I will take Matthews over anyone except McDavid.

 

[Mattavarner]

The results of this poll show how reliable HF is lol
