Congrats Matthews!
What a stud and what an incredible season.
This is the best product the NHL has put on ice in years. Amazing seasons from kucherov, McDavid and Mackinnon, Matthews almost pots 70, fights are starting to come back, there’s hatred and anger and passion in the players ….. it’s been a dream season
I hope the league keeps it rolling like this
I wish he would play more physically. He's a big strong dude, and could influence playoff games a lot more than just scoring, if he chose to.
Matthews used to play more physical, he’s starting to put that back into his game a little bit
He hurt his shoulder in front of the net in year 2 or 3 and that’s when I noticed he started playing much less physically. Not sure if that’s coming from him nervous about injuring the shoulder, or if he’s being coached to not risk it.
Maybe doctors have advised the team his shoulder isn’t strong and will be easy to re-injure
