And Aho would?
Is he better than Matthews and Tavares now?
Right now, Aho is 3th in points and leads (together with Demelo) in +/- with +8
While 16 points Metthews has only +1!!! His defensive skills doesn't seem to be that brilliant. It's "easy" to make points if you just concentrate on that.
I mean, Matthews and Tavares are magical players and I guess I can say without problems that at least currently they are better. But what I am saying, Aho is actually not that far from their level that your post maybe little bit indicate (= definitely not). And soon we could even start to argue seriously, who actually is better.
It requires longer period of playing in current level by Aho that he really can be put to same basket, but we might see it during this year.
With all respect to Matthews and Tavares, they propably started to take "good vitamins" already before entering NHL. Aho for sure just after entering. So physically it has taken bit longer for Aho to reach the necessary level for this high game.
