Here, I’ll do it then:
Eichel
Rookie - 81GP 24G 56P
2nd - 61GP 24G 57P
3rd - 67GP 25G 64P
4th - 77GP 28G 82P
Matthews
Rookie - 82GP 40G 69P
2nd - 62GP 34G 63P
3rd - 68GP 37G 73P
4th - 59GP 42G 71P
What are we talking about here?
This season? Where all the stats are just a few posts above, but I guess you don’t want to look at those?
There both fantastic players, Matthews is a better sniper but the gap isn’t as close as it used to be while Eichels playmaking still remains elite and Matthews is improving there slowly.
It says which of the two would you take on your current roster.
I’d want the player that’s going to be the best player long-term for my team. Therefore, you look at their past, present, and their overall production trends.
If the question is who is the better player right now, it would make sense that the poll would be close. But all signs point to Matthews being better in the future.
Actually “all signs” don’t show Matthews being better in the future, don’t be silly.
eichels production keeps going linear and his point totals and pace this year keep improving by leaps and bounds where as Matthews goal totals are going up on a team that scores almost fifty more goals.
We know you love Matthews, and obviously I’m a big Eichel fan but I’ve always spoke truths about him, it’s normal for some to think in the past I was always biased but this talent and ability and production all speak for themselves. Watch how the game changes when eichel stepss on the ice compared to Matthews that’s why he’s more dynamic offensively, better skater, better possession, better points per 60 in all situations, more clutch more game winners, better skater, better playmaker/passer, better leader (captain) he’s matured while Matthews needs to stop being immature in the offseason and show growth on the ice.
People always said eichel had the better offensive potential and lots of you jumped up in arms “based on what!!!!” Uh....his potential? And now you’re seeing it. He’s more dynamic again with more game winners, with worse players with a goalie he can’t rely on.
literally all the signs say Matthews should be leading eichel in a lot of these categories like points per sixty, points but he’s not...
