So let me get this straight:
Matthews > Barkov
Mackinnon > Matthews
Barkov > Mackinnon
How does that make sense?
Where does Barkov > Mackinnon come from?

Yeah I see. I looked right past that one. You’re correct that those results make no sense.
MacKinnon today. Matthews tomorrow. There shouldn't be a debate on this. MacKinnon might be a top 3 player in the NHL this year while Matthews was hurt. Still young too. Matthews healthy and continually getting better is a perennial top 5 player and has the higher ceiling. He's already probably the best 5 on 5 goal scorer in the game. So yeah.
Nah. MacK is currently at Matthews ceiling
MacKinnon didn't become a top 5 player till this season. We'll see if he's a perennial top 5 guy. I hope so for Team Canada's sake.
I hope you realize you're on an island. Only Leaf homer crazies would agree with you that it's not close at all after the season Mackinnon is having. So I guess you are a Leaf homer crazy. Enjoy the title.
I never said it wasn't close. I replied to a couple Avs fans who said it isn't close. How come you had no problem with those Avs fans comments? Guess where that leaves you? So I guess you are not capable of being impartial when it comes to the Leafs. No worries par for course.

You literally implied it wasn't close:
I told you that Matthews vs Mackinnon was close:
"If you say it's close, then no, my comment isn't overkill. Thanks for proving my point."
That was me agreeing that it's close. The poll should reflect that. How come it doesn't? How come you have no problem with Avs fans making that comment?

You disagreeing with it being close is you agreeing that it's close?
Where did I disagree that it's close???
"If you say it's close, then no, my comment isn't overkill"
What does this have to do with the part of your post I was responding to? How can Matthews have a higher ceiling if MacKinnon is currently playing at Matthews' ceiling?
That's because if you hate the Leafs it's ok for those people to never called out on their hypocrisy.It's actually hilarious how much HF complains about Leafs fans behaving like "Leafs fans," meanwhile you have a far greater number of just as rabid Leaf haters that nobody apart from Leafs fans ever says anything about.
Nah. MacK is currently at Matthews ceiling
Honestly, this to me is as close as it gets. I'm not even voting here. On one hand, you have a a guy that scored 40 as a rookie and just got through what I consider to be a great season (even though he was injured) in Matthews vs a guy that had a very good rookie season and then got stuck on some truly awful Avs squads before majorly breaking out this year in MacK. Both of these guys are within 3 years ages wise of each other so that's a barely a factor IMO. This is a win/win for both the Avs and Leafs. It will be interesting to see if MacK can continue his play next season and if Matthews continues his upward growth.
A guy in his fifth year in the league vs a guy in his second year in the league. A guy who's first four seasons do not come even remotely close to what the other guy did in his first. A guy who is now having an incredible season vs a guy who is playing very well but struggling with injuries. Mackinnon is arguably the best player in the NHL this year, but I'm taking Matthews.
