His ability to beat defenders and goalies with such a large array of tactics and wit have allowed him to ascend to another level this year alongside the support of his star studded wingers. However, like Alex Ovechkin, Matthews has made one mistake that may cost him his legacy in the sport. #hockey #nhl #nhl...
Jason Robertson is Not the Most Underrated Player in the NHL: Jake Guentzel
มุมมอง 5663 หลายเดือนก่อน
At 23 years of age, having a hundred-point season is quite impressive. However, not many acknowledge or consider the pure talent Jason Robertson has already given his lack of fan interest. Nevertheless, many videos have surfaced claiming Jason Roberston to be the most underrated player so ... it would not be fair to consider him truly underrated anymore. Thus, we turn our attention to another N...

Is Alexis Lafreniere a Bust?

Auston Matthews is Not Worth $13.25 Million Dollars ... Here’s Why
มุมมอง 1.8K7 หลายเดือนก่อน
Auston Matthews is a superstar-caliber NHL talent who is the poster boy for the Maple Leafs. His goal-scoring talents are undeniable and so when he signed his league-high contract extension in the summer of 2023, many were not surprised. However, being the highest-paid player in the league, and the face of the franchise, you would expect him to put up big numbers when it counts the most and sig...
Bedard is Better Than Crosby and McDavid

Bedard has exploded onto the hockey scene and everyone is watching him like a hawk on the ice. Many people have given him the generational talent label, comparing him to the likes of Crosby and McDavid in terms of raw talent.

Ovi won a cup
Yeah in his 13th year…. Chill bro
Yes he did
@@DropBear_42 The Stanley Cup is won by teams. There are many great players without the cup who are better than nounames with the cup. "13th year" You need to chill
This is great but you should explain why it’s so bad to do this. Like the fact that now all your teams money is in one player leaving the rest of the team with no money to earn. No other big signings will take place because of that.
Because it takes away from your team. Any amount of extra money the team has they can invest in more players to help everyone else. Mcdavid did it

Lol or brayden point
33 points in 39 games. As a rookie. On the Blackhawks. tOo SmAlLfOr ThE nHL. 🙄
for real tho!!!

He said he's doing good lol
@@PavelDatsyuk-ui4qv he also titled the video "When You're Too Small For The NHL". Clearly he ISN'T too small for the NHL.
Thank You 🙏🏼
Great points. Crosby and Bedard are a similar height, just give Bedard a few years to grow into his frame and everyone will stop having this conversation.
Crosby seems legit 5'11 and bedard probably closer to 5'9 so it's quite noticeable difference when nhl average height is 6 foot.
You’re*
People buy tickets to see goals scored. Mathews is the top goal scorer in the league since he’s played. Absolutely worth it. Additionally he’s the top goal scorer 5 on 5 so far this season so he’s not dining out on power play goals either.
He has all the skill, but zero heart.
Unless you win a cup your not worth much 😅
Please pack up you house and family and leave ONTARIO, there is no place for truth here
I’ve been saying it for years that he has 0 leadership values and he has 0 personality! He’s a captain for being someone who never talks or never does anything to hype up the team. Just because he’s a good player doesn’t mean he should be a captain. Just listen to this guy talk, he has no personality
He will only be the highest paid until McDavid signs his next contract. That's how this works...the cap goes up then there's a new highest paid player. NHL fans are stepping over dollars to argue about nickels. The real problem here is the patheticly low salary cap. Max Scherzer(MLB) makes $45M, Steph Curry(NBA) makes $50M and Joe Burrow(NFL) makes $55M. How can anyone argue NHL'ers make too much when you look at the other leagues. If you look at annual revenues the NHL brings in a lot more than 25% of the revenue of other leagues. So why are their top players making a quarter of the money?
So if the argument is that players don't get paid in the playoffs so they aren't interested in trying because they already got there bag then why would Matthews even bother showing up in the regular season since he gets his bag July 1st 🤔
That’s some pretty high expectations on this kid.
Talented player, career ruined by his greed.
Cap was different when Crosby signed
Yeah the salary cap is stupid and broken, give us a soft cap with luxury tax!
Been a leaf fan for 24 years and am a huge Matthews fan but I honestly cannot pinpoint one contract that a superstar player took in Toronto that was at a heavy discount like Crosby to win a cup, that's why 1967 lurks over us. He's top 5 in the league overall, top 3 overall defensive forward and #1 in scoring. I love everything about his contract except for his term. 4 years? He always leaves that seed of doubt that he wants to be a leaf lol. If he signed for 8 years, this wouldn't even be a topic of discussion. Also, if anybody wants to correct me on my first point please do, because i'm very interested to look into it. Great video man!
It's hard to make any Toronto-specific comparisons to your first point. Only since 2020ish have Toronto been a team with legitimate Stanley Cup hopes (legitimate meaning they actually had a chance to win - not the fans overrating the team). From the beginning of the salary cap to 2020, the Leafs had either been a non-playoff team or a team destined for a first round exit. Conversely, look at players who at one point took discounted team-friendly contracts - Sidney Crosby, Nathan MacKinnon, and Brayden Point are three good examples. All three of those players played for teams who had legitimate chances to win the Stanley Cup, and did in fact win. The team sold the player on the "if you take a discount, we could win" and it worked. Auston Matthews is realistically the first Maple Leafs superstar to sign in Toronto since they were in that legit cup contender category, even Marner's 10.9 AAV was signed after a 2018-19 season in which Toronto finished third in the Atlantic and lost in the first round - they were hardly a legit contender. Matthews is the first Leaf star that you could make the argument could have taken that team-friendly deal. Toronto are legit contenders - will they be without William Nylander next year? Maybe, but it'll hurt their chances. Players don't take team friendly deals simply out of the goodness of their hearts. They do it because they believe doing so will help their team win a Stanley Cup. There's a reason, for instance, you're not going to see Elias Pettersson take a team-friendlyt deal in Vancouver this year. What have the Canucks done to possibly convince them that they're remotely close to contending? Nothing, they've been a dumpster fire since he got there, save for one year they made a playoff run with a team they promptly ruined over the next two offseasons. So I'm not saying you're wrong in saying no superstars have ever taken team-friendly contracts - I'm saying that before Matthews, no superstar has had a reason too. He did have a reason too, and he chose not to.
@@aidanserra7021 compared to your sample teams Toronto hasn't, 1- traded for a superstar player at a retained rate 2- tanked a playoff aspiring season to acquire a top 5 pick.
Hater
While I do wish he signed a longer term. It's hard to blame the guy for chasing the buck. It is a business after all..... I truly believe Matthews will be leaf for life and he's on track to become the greatest leaf of all time. He will bring Toronto a cup. And that to me, makes it worth it. Do you think Mcdavid and Drai will resign in Edmonton? I know it's early still but things aren't looking very good there.That'd be a good take. Great vid Sunny!
I would like to think so. To me, it's nice to see superstar players remain loyal to their teams when they treat them fairly. Also, in hockey culture there is more of an expectation for them to stay unlike other leagues (NBA) where players bounce around. Watching interviews of both them speak, they're very like-minded so I can see them having similar aspirations.
Idk about that winning the cup thing (personally I think the game is rigged) but I'm with you on that greatest leaf ever.... and he'll have it done by age 31.
he fkn sucks as of today by real nhl stats mathews is the best oct 16 2023
My butt McDavid is the nastiest player in the league and bedard won’t surpass him
Ok bro relax hes played 3 games. I know youre not really using the WORLD JUNIORS as a measure of whos a better player. Lets actually see him play on the biggest stage before we start making ridiculous claims like that.
😂😂😂 no way in hell dude. He's gonna have to grow or something or this league is gonna waste him. He'll be great, but sid and mcdavid are gonna be hard to top
Yes, we will have to wait and see. Smaller players can struggle in playoff hockey like Johnny Gaudreau or Mitch Marner. On the opposite, Marty St. Louis is a good example of why sometimes height doesn't matter when the talent is there.
Settle tf down
Bedard is great and is what u need in this game but his defense game and One timers need a bit of work but in like 2 years I say we could see a whole new Bedard a player who can dominate
I couldn't agree with you more. Bedard is special and his personality is only gonna grow. Also, Matthews deserved to get paid. And his showing why. Do a Matthews take next.... Subbed.
