You're blind if you think there's any discernible gap between Eichel and Matthews. Rask does have the edge on Price though. For that reason alone, I'd probably give this to the Sabres-Bruins duo.

Matthews is better than Eichel. Case closed.

Rask has been more consistent over a long period of time.
Price's high point though is far better, than Rask has ever been.
Eichel is better than matthews. Case reopened.
At their peak, its a slam dunk for Price/Matthews
Career wise, a bit more murkier, and harder to grasp.

Show your work.
Maybe it's time you show your work. You're the one that stated that this isn't up for debate and complains no one proves their point, yet you offer nothing to prove your own point.

John is not a point per game player Auston is.
John does not have a 40g season, Auston has 2
John has never been a plus player
This was the first time John had a 30g season, all of Auston's are.

This was the second time Auston had a 30A season, all of John's are.

Except he hasn't...?

Really? Which comparable level/year did Jack outperform Matthews? Additionally (not that it matters since it's largely a useless stat) Matthews has been a plus player in 3 of 4 seasons, is better on the draw, far better goal scorer and better defensively. Eichel is the superior playmaker, however Matthews is underrated in this aspect. Eye test and on paper Matthews edges Jack out imo ^

Rask is quite a bit above Price, and Matthews can't make up the total difference to I take Eichel/Rask.

do you know you're allowed to not make things up? It might help you create a better argument

What year did Matthews outperform Wichel? Additionally he might be better on the draw than Eichel but probably not defensively. Matthews is the far better goal scorer but Eichel is underrated in this aspect and is the better playmaker. Eye test Eichel edges out Matthews and soon will on paper too imo.

337 pts in 354 games is PPG? Never knew.

Except for every season, bar 2018/19
This John's first season as a plus player.

Once again Goals vs. Assists
Points overall AM34 hands down.

For the purposes of the discussion at hand, he is definitely a PPG player. It'll be a long time before he isn't.

So what you are saying is, John was in fact a plus player? That can't be right...

do you know you're allowed to not make things up? It might help you create a better argument

Do you know I was just matching the level of the post I quoted?

Was it that hard to figure out?

@Pyrophorus I think this was meant for you.

If your arguments hold no relevancy to the topic being discussed, at least make sure what you're saying is correct.
