Value should be corresponding to what you have accomplished not what you may or have the ability to. Having said that take what Crosby makes annually and subtract around 5 mil and you have the salary for both Mcdavid and Mathews. - Camel

Me too as anyone would that has brain but the best thing is watching all the Leaf fans fall all over the themselves trying to back this silly post. McJesus is a generational talent and the first one since Sid. Matthews is a great player but not on that level. - Mino42

Matthews will sign the same contract as Tavares and it will catch up to them in 5 years. He is super talented but I just see him a tier down from McDavid, Crosby & Malkin.
I think a comparable in terms of impact would be Mackinnon but Matthews will be taking up +$4M more against the cap. - MacPatty

I think someone should tell the GM in Toronto that this is not basketball and you need a lot more than 4 good players to be competitive. By the time they get finished paying Tavares, Matthews, Nylander, and Marner they are going to have over 40 million of their cap space spent. So unless the salary cap goes up drastically, how are they going to sign the rest of the team and be competitive? - Woowy
I'll call Dubas right away. He clearly thought he was GMing the Raptors.
I doubt Tavares, Matthews, Nylander and Marner will tie up more than $40 mln.
And it's no different than any of the other teams in the league with the problem of "too many star players". It's a good problem to have.

I love how you put your favorite team as LA but you're really a laffs fan. I'd use a different team as my favorite too on here if I were a laffs fan. Must be embarrassing |

I agree - Aetherial
and he has every right to expect to be paid more than Tavares... doesn't make him less of a person or player. |

I draw the line there sir. You must not read the trove of "inside knowledge" that Garf has. Some might say a treasure trove.

They are very different in their style and game, but they are every bit equal in value...in fact Auston is MORE valuable.
Well the rest of NHL disagrees with you EK
McDavid has as more career assist than Matthews has points
They are what? 6 months apart in age.

One of the dumber statements I’ve seen in a while. Matthews is not near as good as people seem to think, as evidence with 2 points in the play offs this year.....he can’t tie McDavids skates. |

For the record, I would have to do a very serious analysis to determine whether I'd rather have Matthews or Draisaitl...McDavid is another level entirely. - JLO961

"Matthews makes everybody around him look better"
No matter how good of a player you are, you can only make pylons with cement blocks glued to them look a certain level of good. Trying to compare McDavid and Matthews is absurd because they're in not even comparable environments. |

Listen you stupid fcuktard (and trolling-me-Symba007). This is what Leafs fans were saying. It is possible I missed a Leafs fan quote but the two bolded ones are the only ones even close to trying to justify Eklund's derp and one of them came after your dumbass comment. The only point I have made, and made quite clearly, is that you are an idiot who can't read.
So, do us all a favor and STFU unless someone calls for more comedic relief.
Connor McDavid is a better hockey player than Auston Matthews.
Please don't expose us Leafs fans like this. - Kinger34
Yes I prefer Matthews over McDavid. - Mathewsscores
Personally I would rather have McDavid than Matthews right now and here is why - Alberta_Leaf
matthews is a good player but the numbers don't support matthews making equal or more than mcdavid. - The Deal Man
Matthews might be a more 200ft player? ..but he's not getting more than the 100pt mvp McDavid is getting .10to10.8ish ..maybe more. (MrHunter later goes on to agree that Matthews is not as good as McDavid) - Mr.Hunter
Hmm.... Matthews didnt take the Leafs to the playoffs alone. Marner had a great 2nd half last year and Andersen has always been amazing. If anything Andersen carried.
This article is really reaching. - Balucha
So was today, Tanner's day to write as Eklund? - Aetherial
Matthews is an excellent top-notch player, and I suspect will be remembered as one of the best players of his time, as well as one of the best Leafs, once his career is done.
But I would straight-up trade him for McDavid in a heartbeat if given the chance. - --Lamp--
So would everyone else.
This is a troll blog. - Aetherial
*** Now this is when your genius (frank)ing post was made.***
Me too as anyone would that has brain but the best thing is watching all the Leaf fans fall all over the themselves trying to back this silly post. McJesus is a generational talent and the first one since Sid. Matthews is a great player but not on that level. - Mino42
still making more sense than ek sober - Tumbleweed
95% of Leaf fans are well aware McDavid is the better player. We aren't stupid.. this is Ek trolling since he has nothing better to talk about now that Kucherov signed a new deal and squashed all the Karlsson trade rumors. - LeafGuy 89
Matthews is a 9 on offense and a 9 on defensive side of the game.
McDavid is a 10 on offense and a 7.5 on defensive side of the game. - Plantheparade
that being said, McDavid is clearly the best offensive player on the planet. - Archaic
Come on Ek, This is (sic) even close.
Matthews will receive the exact same contract as Tavares did but for an extra year but in no way/shape/how is he even in the same hemisphere as McDavid. - Geeroo |

lol you're not exactly in a position to ridicule someone's team I do like how you used the word laffs though instead of Leafs. It showed that not only are you not a fan of the team, but that you're super good with puns and whatnot. I bet you use words like libtard, contard, and lieberal too. So super smart. |

I don't think he should expect more than Tavares or Eichel for that matter. |

I love how you think insulting us using 'Laffs fans' actually hurts our feelings. You're one cool dude, man. Keep up the awesome work.
In the past decade. I'd say being an Oilers fan is far more embarassing. So not sure why you feel so high and mighty.
Move along..
