Tavares >>> draiMcDavid >> Matthews
Draisaitl ≤ Tavares
Look at the trash he played with in Ny and still produced like he did.
Tavares >>> draiMcDavid >> Matthews
Draisaitl ≤ Tavares
Crosby has been ~1.1 points per game player for four years now. I don't see how he's that much better than Matthews, who is just incredible at 5vs5 with low ice time.
Your correct but you still need to fill out a capable defense other wise your wasting the league best offence in my opinion right now.It is, but it’s better to spend on bluechip assets who are actually worth that money than spreading out the cap on a bunch of B and C level guys.
Absolutely, not up for debate, Kadri is the best 3rd line center in the NHL

You do but how will you improve the defence without cap space or even trade bait?? Gotta give to get and right now you are stacked upfront but weak on RHD.Makes no sense to move nylander though he’s a winger. Right now we have 3 deadly combos of :
Matthews nylander
Tavares marner
Kadri Marleau
I guess that's a no then.I dont know a better forward group than the Leafs.
I mean it most certaintly isn't up for debate as Pittsburgh is the clear team with the best Cs.
Both Crosby and Malkin are cleary better than Matthews and Tavares.
Brassard and Kadri are near even, edge to Kadri.
And Sheahan is better than Jooris or whomever makes the roster as the 4C.

You don't seem to understand we don't care who the 4th line center is right now.
It does not matter
I dont know a better forward group than the Leafs.
Those rose colored sunglasses are impressive.
Its "rational" "hatred" of their insufferable fan base, not the hockey team; and no Penguins are betterEasily, but lets not forget that many people have an irrational hatred of the Leafs so our talent is always downplayed.
Toronto now has TWO #1 elite centres on its team Matthews & Tavares to go along with Marner, Nylander, Marleau and company. I personally don't see a better forward crop than Toronto.
With Andersen's solid goaltending and our D which isn't as bad as people make it out to be the Leafs are now a legitimate contender as much as any other.
No when the top 3 are Matthews Tavares and Kadri that's about as good as it gets you can argue Pittsburgh but Brassard is not Kadri
You're in here arguing for C depth you potato, you should care.
You keep holding on to small sample sizes to judge players.
Matthews scores at the same pace as Kuzy but scores much more goals and scores alot better at EV strength. And please don't use "he folds in the playoffs" based off a few games.
Remeber when Kuzy had 2 points in 12 games in a playoff run.
It's all too small of a sample to judge players off of..
Tavares and Backstrom both score at around the same pace. Except one scores more goals and does it with Josh Bailey and Pa Parenteau as his main wings. And Tavares is not a one dimensional C. That's one of the most absurd things ive seen.
All 3 Maple leaf Cs are better than the Caps Cs head to head.
No team is built perfectly. We just took a 105 pt team and added John Tavares. We’re much improved. There will be minor improvements on D but the leafs are a big contender.You do but how will you improve the defence without cap space or even trade bait?? Gotta give to get and right now you are stacked upfront but weak on RHD.
When the top 3 are Matthews Tavares and Kadri the 4th line guy doesn't matter, I'd like Brian Gibbons but again the 4th line guy doesn't matter in this case.
Oh my god this summer is going to be unbearable on these boards...
Massive edge to kadri you mean. Jooris will be on the Marlies, we don’t have a 4C right now so it remains to be seenI mean it most certaintly isn't up for debate as Pittsburgh is the clear team with the best Cs.
Both Crosby and Malkin are cleary better than Matthews and Tavares.
Brassard and Kadri are near even, edge to Kadri.
And Sheahan is better than Jooris or whomever makes the roster as the 4C.
