Matthews is 20 years old. What do you mean "was" the better center? He hasn't even had a full career yet

Gilmour finished 2nd in Hart voting at his peak. Let’s wait until Matthews has a top 5 finish before we start comparing him to a Hall of Famer with his Jersey retired.

Gilmour was arguably a top 3 player in the world for two glorious years, Matthews hasn't come close to that peak yet. But that peak came and went quickly, Matthews will definitely give more to the franchise over his career.

I'd take Gilmour ahead of Fedorov. Great player, in the history boards there was this comparison years ago..

Pretty much, barring something majority unforeseen
