Matthews finishing with 69 goals is better than him finishing with 70 goals

 

[Mez]

69 is still pretty sexy tho.

 

[Givememoneyback]

.

Define try

 

[34]

Do points next

Could not care less about secondary assists.

 

[Coffey]

Matthews - 69 goals

McDavid - 32 goals

McDavid 1.53PPG

Mathews 0.80PPG

lmao

 

[Divine]

So close to being a great season

He scored over 70, but the offside reviews took a few away.

It's a new phenomenon.

@KaN19

remember this?

Stat-padding in a 8-1 game in game 80. Love it, greatest of all-time.

 

[Kerberos]

Can't stop laughing at Toronto playing these last 2 games like getting Matthews 70 was their Stanley Cup.

Hit a post against Florida. Hit a post tonight. And a skate stopped a sure goal from him tonight too.

I'm sorry but it's absolutely hilarious how Toronto's players choke in big moments and milestone opportunities. Kind of reminiscient of their playoff performances. Nylander also somehow didn't hit 100 points after his torrid first half lol.

 

[MoreMogilny]

Then they lost to Devils, Wings, Panthers, Bolts ....giving up what 25 goals ?
play off ready coach ? ha!

Real season starts now. They’ve nursed some injuries and hopefully will have the lineup they want for game one. That’s all that matters now.

Their opponent hasn’t had an amazing stretch lately themselves.

Is 69 goals a choke? Maybe if he stopped at 64.

Lemieux 'choked' at 69 a few times too.

Well, getting AM to 70 was their Stanley cup

lmao

Huh? Matthews is well over 1PPG lol.

 

[Oilslick941611]

Kucherov is a gamer, got his milestone

Am disappeared like always

Never there when somethings on the line.

 

[Czechboy]

The easy part of their schedule was the long winning streak and props to them for taking full advantage.
I've been a dick all year towards you guys (not you in particular your cool) but that's only because 90% of oilers fans went out of their way to shit on the nucks after the team was bitch slapped by us in October. Seriously the OOTT thread was 80% whining about Vancouver as well as on the mains.

But that doesn't change how impressive of a turnaround it was.
I think there's a legitimate concern that #97 covers up a lot of flaws but who cares as long as the teamF wins.
Skinner deserves credit as well.

FWIW.. Nuck's owned us this year. 4 and 0 and most games felt like we weren't going to win. It was impressive.. reminded me of when we used to play the Stars back in the day.

I honestly think a lot of posters thought Nucks were going to start losing and not making the playoffs.lol Finished first and a Cup contender.

97 absolutely covers up problems... but so do all the stars. Only perfect teams are Canada and US (maybe Sweden) in best on best competitions. And Oil are definitely flawed in some areas (2RD in particular).

Never there when somethings on the line.

Sucked he had to end the season against 2 playoff teams, was obvious he’d let everyone down

 

[RedRocking]

Why are the TNT guys wearing tuxes?

 

[Zegs2sendhelp]

Why are the TNT guys wearing tuxes?

Award prediction show or something

 

[34]

McDavid 1.53PPG

Mathews 0.80PPG

lmao

Secondary assists in the pacific

 

[Givememoneyback]

Why are the TNT guys wearing tuxes?

Some awards night, giving Cooper a trophy thing. Don't worry, Ace is wearing sneakers.

 

[Ted Hoffman]

So close to being a great season

It was still a great season. Only 8 guys, a combined 14 times, have scored more goals. It just won't earn a higher level of immortality. It's like saying when Joe Thornton had 96 assists, it wasn't a great season because it wasn't 100. It was still, at the time, the 16th most in a season, only 4 guys had ever had more assists in a season. Historically speaking, that's pretty damn great.

 

[BurnabyJoe7]

Matthews - 69 goals

McDavid - 32 goals

You just knew when Leafs fans were criticizing the oilers for playing McDavid in a blowout that Matthews wasn't getting it.

Next up: first round exit so Matthews can recover and go for 70 again next season.

 

[Kane One]

Why are the TNT guys wearing tuxes?

I just find it funny that Lundqvist still finds a way to dress better than everyone else, even though they’re all in matching tuxedos.

nope....and hey ain't giving up 6 a game either.
But yes the leafs have a better chance against Bruins ...than Panthers. Or Bolts

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

Just got home
How did Mathews not have a goal in a 6-4 game…

 

[Spotty 2 Hotty]

START THE f***ING GAME, TNT.

9PM LOCAL STARTS ARE DOG SHIT.

DO IT TO THE EAST COAST FOR ONCE.
