Yeah, the rookie year there was an argument for Laine. I always maintained Matthews > Laine but people were definitely going overboard with saying you guys picked the wrong player.
I do agree that if the names were reversed someone likely would have made a thread about it, but this thread just seems like an overreaction to two very opposite starts. Even before this season it has been clear Matthews > Laine in every aspect of the game except maybe goalscoring, and even there you can make a good argument for Matthews.
It just seems like an unnecessary thread for Leaf fans to continue jerking off Matthews like they have all over this board since the start of the season, which I get because he has been unbelievable, but it just makes you guys look bad.
Laine will be fine, he'll score 45+ this year, and he'll still be worse than Matthews.
