Re: The Everything Austin Matthews thread

He looked pissed, thinks he wants to be a Coyote

First time that has been said.

Do we automatically have the best prospect system in the league?

Yes. And that's before we pick all the other players.

It's going to be the new thing to say every year.

This has been a strange year. EVERYTHING fell into place.

 

[Metalleaf]

Jonas' hot takes are funny.

Looking back, the Clarkson signing was the best thing to happen to you guys. Like a heroin addict hitting rock bottom and accepting that big changes need to be made.

Yes, but funny enough, the Jets are one of the teams in the conversation and they're getting Laine....so it's still close. We have Nylander, Marner & Matthews up at the top of our group, which is insanely good...the Jets have Ehlers, Laine, & Connor, which is also really, really good.

I don't think there's any doubt that Matthews wanted the Coyotes to win the lottery. But he had to know it was unlikely and he'd be going elsewhere. There's no reason to think he's disappointed that the Leafs won (outside of the fact it wasn't PHO.) I assume he's as happy with the Leafs as anyone besides the Yotes.

It's fitting after all the years of crappy southern teams taking Toronto guys, we draft an Arizona kid.

You can always come back Jonas.

No he can't.

It has been a downright nightmare to be a Leaf fan since that 10 minutes of the 3rd period in game 7 against the Bruins.

The last 12 months, starting with the Clarkson trade, so much as gone right for this organisation.
Babcock, Lou, trading Phaneuf, Kessel, Marner, emergence of Nylander, Zaitsev, Vessey maybe, and now Matthews.... If Stamkos comes here it will be a an absolutely phenomenal year and a half stretch.

Yes. I may be drunk but yes.

I really want to see Marner on Matthews wing.

In his first interview after the lottery, he says "mixed emotions."

Ugh.

You're honestly not doing this, are you?
