thats good maybe the laughs can still trade him for a 5th round pick and get some production
Now mathews is useless trade him now before you get nothing for him
2021 Jason Spezza (who has no prior record) gets 6 games for kneeing someone.
2026 Ratko Gudass (5 prior suspensions) gets 5 games for kneeing someone, and putting them out for the rest of the season.
Either there's anti-Leaf bias here or more likely, Parros is getting the CTE early and isn't for the job.
you'll never see Mathews in a leafs jersey again.
We all know if that was any other Leaf player who got hit Matthews wouldn't do crap about it. This is who the team is and was under Tavares. As far as the injury goes he may come back 100% for the start of next season but that 100% with another injury on top of the other injuries he has had. Age and injuries have added up. Trade him and get some picks. Maybe you can retool but to me I would rebuild. Cap is going up..between picks you could get with Matthews and Nylander, maybe even few others you may be able to rebuild along side free agency. They tried. Had good changes and didn't get it done. Such is life.
Maple Leafs Fans Hopeful Auston Matthews Will Be Traded To LA Kings.
Dirty knee dirty dirty
Trade morgan Rielly its all on him coward
That same type of hit sidelined Wendle Clark ,
That's good news for Matthews.
The Olympic Games should have gone to the suspension action debate instead .. but it was a targeted action
В 90е Гудаса бы прибили тафгаи за такие действия, тем более в отношении капитана. Сколько не заслуженной ненависти к Метьюзу, особенно со стороны болельщиков Торонто. Он ваша легенда, лучший снайпер всех времён клуба, рекорд который будет долго не побьют. И в лиге на данный временной период десяти лет, он лучший снайпер.
Mathews cannot play for this group next year, that was a forever fuc%-up by the whole group, no one came to help him,not even help him off the ice, nope hes got to go now man. What a mess Dubas created in Toronto,cant wait to see what hes done to Pittsburg…what a fraud.
Do those skates have toe picks?
I think a trade will make his knee feel better.
Who cares about the Team responding – both players were face down on the ice. There was not much to do in terms of getting idiotic "revenge" which in the end would not change the fact. People are blowing the Team response out of context and needlessly thinking that retaliation is going to make the knee problem better – also, the NHL did not seem to think it was so serious either by giving Mr. Goon Gudas just 5 game suspension.
What's the difference, he has become an average player without marner to feed him the puck..
Gudas needs to be removed from the game. He’s a demon.
How this Gouda’s criminal is not kicked out of the league is going to hurt hockey for years to come.
Also, IMHO, Matthew’s will not be back, at least not in a maple leaf jersey…
He’ll be ready to go to the playoffs 🤔😂😂oh ya you probably won’t make them
