So will Matthews' OT goal tonight be spectacular, or just ordinary by his standards?

What's the verdict? Ordinary Matthews?

Nylander and Matthews are untouchable in my books. The only 2. All the talk last year with Nylander getting ragged on and the trade talk for a top D, as far as Im concerned he was their best player the second half of last year. Topped that with MVP in the Worlds and he has carried it into this season. His play compared to Marner's is night and day. Albeit he plays with Auston but his poise with the puck, hustle, fending defenders off, his speed, playmaking he's an elite player.

I went with spectacular. Taking a saucer pass and placing a bobbling puck perfectly is a lot tougher than he made it seem.

Simply outstanding!

That was a one-touch reception and transitioned into a shot without any further settling. Price was expecting at least one more move.

It seems I wasn't the first to highlight this post.

Also consider he easily got the puck past the beset goalie in the world twice tonight.

3 times, but who's counting?

Just ordinary it turns out...by his standards anyway. Beat the best goalie in the world NBD

The goal was harder than it looked, took the pass on a bounce, controls it and gets the shot off without settling the puck down. The kid's hand eye coordination is off the charts good

Hey, did you guys know that the Maple Leafs haven't won a game in Montreal in almost 25 minutes?

 

[disco]

Auston Matthews. That is all.

Pretty disappointing, really!

Fehr plays, while Moore is docked.

I think it's only Fehr to acknowledge this as the best pun in this thread.

Hopefully this one will end up similar to this beauty game exactly 11 years ago.

I was watching it at home with a Flames Rush fan off a Rush message board.

I watched the third period and OT at a bar on Yonge having missed the first two periods because I was seeing The Departed.

Plan to be back there next June.  They'll open early for the parade.

Do I have to see The Departed again?
