If Matthews and Marner develop into consistent 85-90 point players; it's going to be real hard to turn that down despite the McDavid factor.


McDavid

Matthews
Marner


Puljujarvi


People will say "McDavid because Mcdavid - best player in the world" But i'd take two superstars over one generational. You need many great players to win a stanley cup. The ability to have Matthews on one line and Marner on the other; while teaming up on the powerplay is so effective and powerful. I really do envision them winning stanley cups.

I have very little faith in Puljujarvi right now. Went with Matthews and Marner.

The Leafs duo.

It's possible that Poolparty becomes a top player then it would be the Oiler duo. But I don't think it would be by a whole lot.
Given that the MM duo of the Leafs will be very potent, I'll take them. The extra bit the Oiler duo could be better is not worth rolling the dice for imo.

Hmm. Marner overrated but Matthews underrated so it evens out pretty much. McDavid is the best player here easily but Puljujarvi is the worst easily. I’ll go Oilers since I’m still a believer in JP’s upside.

I really like Pulkujarvi, and I think a lot of this poll rests on what you see him turning into. He hasn't had stellar numbers yet, but obviously has plenty of time.

I think if JP becomes a 50/60 point player you go with the Edmonton duo. If he doesn't, the Leafs.

The gap between Puljujarvi and Marner is probably larger than the one between Matthews and McDavid, but I might still lean McDavid here

I'll take McDavid duo only because of him though. I don't have much faith in Puljujärvi but can't pass on best player in game.

Oilers fan saying Matthews and Marner will combine for more points. I still rather have the Oilers duo because McDavid. I don't think Pulju becomes a top 6 player but....it's McDavid..

McDavd almost wins it on his own but Puljujarvi still has way too many questions so the Leafs duo take it because at least I get two top 6 players with them.
