Well sure, he does in fact present the question in terms of who's "on top" based on the performance and whether that changes the view on how they are perceived by the fans and community. the topic is slightly misleading.
As for Finns not rooting, not believing and even publicly stating that Laine would become as the better player from the 2016 draft is not what I said. Since you misinterpreted, I'll reiterate. It was not the Finns who swarmed in with great numbers into the Auston Matthews related topic after the lottery order was announced but exactly the opposite, where the Leafs came in (to topic dedicated to Patrik Laine) and acted all mighty before getting proved false, not by us the fans, but by the player. You originally specifically said that if it wasn't for the Finns and Leafs haters or what not, that none of this would have happened. Oh, it would have happened. Why? Cause people tend to have a long memory. Heck, even I forget a lot of details from there and then, but that's one plate that would not just be wiped clean by a fair handshake. However you also implied that by trying to defend Matthews against accusations made by the Finns (or whatever hate group it is that's against you) you sort of "accidently" might have knocked Laine on the way. For real? Probably the most ridiculous take I've read from the recent while. Thank you for the entertainment.
The fact that you still go on about who ignited the debate proves one of the three a) you weren't there b) you don't really know c) you're outright lying. I'll give you a pass for the "C" for now since you may honestly be clueless.
I know I know, it takes two to tango. So of course ammunition was spent both ways but like I said, neither the Finns nor the Jets can claim the honors nor the credits for firing the first shots. Get your facts straight and we can talk some more. Seriously I would give you guys at least some credit if you were honest and came out clean about all of this instead of blaming others for your doings without taking responsibility.
