Isnt this a Patrick laine thread... how come there is so much Matthews talk... he has like 40 other threads.
Kessell has two cups with Pittburgh.
Great pick up by the Pens after Toronto ran him out of town.
I wonder when Matthews will go to Arizona to play for the Coyotes.
That would be his dream.

I believe the difference is timing. Laine seems to take longer to get the shot off which is potentially harder than Matthews but the speed of the release is important because goalies has less a chance to react to it. Matthews is also good at getting the shot off even when checked. 5 on 5 I think Matthews is more deadly but Laine should be more on PP but he just has not caught on fire this year on the PP yet like he used to do. I think Laine need to learn how to score not just with the one timer. I remember that Stamkos had a great one timer earlier in his career but then later he learned to score in many other ways including going hard to front of the net and score on his belly. Goals does not always has to be pretty but has to be timely.Laine has a great shot, but Matthews still scores more... and has probably one of the most deceptive shots in the league.

Nah.. I think Aho is doing just fine ;DIt's a shame that all of the Finnish players in the league are currently being black-balled by their coaches.

100%. Insecurity over Matthews I believe.Leaf haters bring up Mathews for no reason...but apparently, don't want leaf fans to respond.
Where did I say he was unhappy? We were discussing whether Laine was better than A. Matthews. He is not. I think Chevy would agree with me.Good think that you are not Chevy.
Laine is happy to be in Winnipeg.
Matthews would run back to Arizona to the american team he loves.
Jets fans complex.
100%. Insecurity over Matthews I believe.
Except for the part where Matthews has more goals and more assists in fewer games.The numbers are basically the same.
lofl
How do you feel now that Matthews has 7 more points in 13 less games?Laine is worth Matthews.
Straight up no adds.
Real talk.
Not every fanbase has something hockey related move to Arizona.Good think that you are not Chevy.

RNH+Bouchard?What would the cost be from Edmonton?

You would have had to skip a a lot of the thread to only notice that one fact.Im like scrolling through pages of this thread. Curious about Laine's value .
All i see is Matthew is better than Laine
I think his value is 8 to10M a year.
Just messing around. If his TOI is still below 16 min. in december and no new contract signed, would there be any takers, and if , what price?
Patty loves Winnipeg and Winnipeg loves Patty. I think they get that done easily
