The players on the Panthers are not underpaid because they don't pay any state income tax. So in effect that's why a team like the Lightning can offer a player a little less in terms of the AAV on a contract and they tried to use that advantage to sign Tavares.The players association won't let Florida players accept 2-3 million less. That hurts all NHl players.
Ryan Mcdonaugh, Callahan, Ekblad. Are players really underpaid in Florida/
That's not true... Marner and Tavares have each other, while Matthews was playing with 2nd rate linemates all season... Matthews still has one of the best ppg and gpg rates in the league. If he didn't get hurt, and had 1st class linemates, he'd be destroying the league right now.funny how matthews is supposed to be our franchise player yet Tavares and Marner are proving to be way ahead of him
In the games he's played, he HAS destroyed the league. He's unreal.That's not true... Marner and Tavares have each other, while Matthews was playing with 2nd rate linemates all season...

Ya, I'm not sure why we don't put Mitch as our 3rd line center, shift Kadri down to 4th. LOL... I know its madness for a bunch of reasons, but what a unreal 4 centermen we could put down the middle: Matthew, Tavares, Marner, KadriMitch has always been a center. He just lines up as a winger now.
He’ll play center at some point during his career here, no doubt.Ya, I'm not sure why we don't put Mitch as our 3rd line center, shift Kadri down to 4th. LOL... I know its madness for a bunch of reasons, but what a unreal 4 centermen we could put down the middle: Matthew, Tavares, Marner, Kadri
How can one be "in a class by himself" and not be a top player. You make zero sense.

Tavares, Marner, and Matthews (for the games he's played), along with Rielly, have all been top 20 in the NHL so far this year. The only reason Matthews falls out of the top 20 is that he hasn't played all the games.
I just hope it lasts.
