OMG!!!!!! You watch the games? How special. You must be an expert on all things hockey. I am so humbled to be debating such a hockey mind like you.

matthews doesn't play exclusively with rookies, just like Laine doesn't play exclusively with mark...who is also still considered a NHL rookie, but whatever.

it is my opinion Laine will be a better over all player. Deal with it.
This should convince you who are Matthews' regular line mates :

For Matthews to play with Kadri on the same line one has to play wing, and that hasn't happened except on pp.

It doesn't. You cherry picked stats and edited it . Nice try though.

The true Number one is leading the rookies and the true #1 plays on a worst team (10-12-2). Imagine what Laine would do on the Leafs with JVR and Bozak. That line would be a monster line.

I'm not exactly sure how playing with JVR and Bozak is that much better than playing with Scheifele.

If JVR, Bozak, and Kadri are all amazing players one has to wonder why the Leafs finished where they did last year.

You don't remember they were tanking and both JVR and Bozak were injured for a good portion of the season? Bozak missed 30+ games and JVR missed 40+. Were you even watching?

These stats were 'copy&paste' from the link I provided, unedited. You just can't accept facts that prove you were wrong and how little you know. Just keep entertain yourself with Laine fantasies, or continue to embarrass yourself with your bullshit.

1. No one is wrong technically since we won't know for at least a decade who the better player is
2. the only person spewing "bullshit" is the hysterical person going ape shit over a simple debate
3. what facts prove me wrong champ? Your grade 2 cut and paste or your lack of any coherent or logical argument?

You threw so much shit out you forgot what you're arguing about. So much coherence on your part that you're starting to contradict yourself. You're just not worth anymore of my time.

YOU ARE NOW OFFICIALLY ON MY IGNORE LIST.

I think you are confused. Just because I say Laine is the true number one doesn't mean I think Austin is useless. He's going to be a superstar no doubt, I just think Laine is better. You deal in absolutes because you spend too much time online. In the real world you can disagree with civility.

What he's saying is that because Laine has all of 1 point (assist) in his last 5 games and at most 1 goal in his last 10 games, he is clearly the top draft pick. C'mon Georgie, get with the program.
That must be it.
Hmmmm, I wonder if Johnny can tell us how many of Laine's assists are primary, and how many secondary?

JohnnyJohnnyJackson must know more than all of hockeydom.
Who are we to doubt the wizard?

If you base these rookies on average points per game:

Marner 0.86 ppg
Matthews 0.82 ppg
Laine 0.76 ppg
Nylander 0.76 ppg
Werenski 0.76 ppg

I think the 3 finalist for the Calder trophy comes down to Marner, Laine and Werenski. Laine will probably win because the 3 Leafs rookie split the votes.

No need to name call...but if you do call people a foolish troll, don't come off as one yourself. Do your damn research before you chirp.

Matthews has played most of his time with Kadri who is more seasoned and matches mark's production. So what is your point?

You can't Fathom the thought that I actually believe Laine is the true #1? I HAVE to believe Matthews is or I am a troll? Truly asinine.
OMG!!!!!! You watch the games? How special. You must be an expert on all things hockey. I am so humbled to be debating such a hockey mind like you.

Believe what you want but are you really trying to convince us that Kadri is as good as Scheifele ? ... And Scheifele is a rookie ?

Dear god I wish you were the Winnipeg GM, you have no idea how much I wish you were the Winnipeg GM ... Scheifele in a Leafs jersey would be awesome.

It's unfortunate for Laine to suffer that injury and I hope he gets well soon. I'd love to see a healthy competition between Laine and Matthews (and possibly Werenski and Marner) for the Calder trophy and I think that will benefit Matthews and Marner for their development.

I thought Winnipeg had the third best young core behind Edmonton and Toronto and they may have the best balance between forwards and defence and are a couple of years ahead of the Leafs' rookies. It's rather disappointing so far for them not to be doing better and I wonder how long will it take for Maurice's coaching be questioned.
