One is a center / one is a winger... Matthews did not have his scoring winger show up at all last year..

WTF, do people understand the game at all.

Marner playing with Tavares for a full season is the same as Matthews playing with (looks at line up card) Kapanen?

Interesting stat here. Last season Matthews scored 25 even strength goals. Marner scored 22 even strength goals. Matthews gets 58% OZ starts to Marner's 53%. Matthews 22 PP points, Marner 23 PP points. I'm not sure Mitch is only a PP guy any more than Matthews is.
- aminnes


i think your stat included empty net and sh.

AM had 23 goals 5v5 in 1020 TOI
Marner had 16 in 1212

or

1.35/60
.79/60

So you are just going to ignore that Matthew played 15 less games?

It’s funny how you state OZ starts but don’t state QOC, QOT. If you are going to dive into these stats then do it right.

If offensive zone starts matter then so do the players he playing with and against.

now do eichel
- Tumbleweed



I never said Eichel was the best player in the game. You said Matthews is.

Theres the difference.

As far as Risto, hes been terrible. So our GM went out, drafted Dahlin, traded for Montour, and traded for Miller from Vegas. All better than Risto. So losing him will only make the team better. We no longer need him. We needed a defensive upgrade. So we are going to lose Risto after adding Dahlin, Miller, and Montour.

Like the Leafs, you guys needed a defensive upgrade, so you let Gardiner walk and traded for Ceci.

You aren’t allowed to do it like that.

Every season must be judged as if he played 82 games.

But that is an argument from a place we don't know. If you're suggesting Nylander will send AMs numbers into the stratosphere that may well be, but we have no indicator that that is the case. If anything Nylander benefits most likely, no the other way around.

Itll be interesting to see who has the better year, Dahlin vs. Ceci.

A nice side chess match to keep an eye on.

No they arent.
Mm - leading scorer on the team 2 years in a row.
Leads the entire league in 5 on 5 primary assists
Marner plays a 200ft gam like a center
Kills penalties
Am - 0.95 ppg
Mm - 0.92 ppg
Am - avg goals per season - 39
Mm - avg goals per season - 24
Am - avg assist per season- 32
Mm - avg assist per season- 53
Am - total pts - 211
Mm - total pts - 229
Am - Toi/g - 18
Mm - Toi/g - 17

Yup extremely far off

- Santo_44

Or you do the average of three seasons they played.
Matthews, great scorer and player
Marner, great playmaker and player.
Am is the better scorer no doubt.
But overall, a case could be made that marner isnt thst far off as a player.
Which is what his agent is doing.

Wha???
Unless your saying Marner scored 6 empty netters? I think he had a couple. I also remember Matthews tapping in a number of wide open nets. At that point we're getting very semantic. One guy had 22, the other 25. PP wise they are very similar, and of course Matthews missed time. But I thought we weren't allowed to talk about that.

I’m just saying when you dig deep into the stats he isn’t that close.

And when millions of dollars are involved you go as deep as you can go into the stats.
