Auston Matthews has been the NHL's best goal scorer this season. In this video, we take a deeper look at how he's scoring goals & how his ability to find space has him in position to potentially challenge Alex Ovechkin & Wayne Gretzky for the all time goal record years from now.
its not about how many you score in your 20s, its about how many you score in your 30s
As a Leafs fan I don't think Matthews will become the best Goal Scorer of all time. The man hasn't played a full 82 game season since his Rookie years & is injury prone. I expect Matthews to get into the Top 10 of all time & quite possibly Top 5, but 1st or 2nd? I don't think so personally
Ovi had to deal with the dead-puck era, Matthews has benefitted from the more offensive rules for his career. He does have the occasional great year followed up with disappointing ones. You go from 60 goals, back to 40, and that is a pretty big dip. He needs to string together 7+, 50 goal seasons to even be remotely considered. He ain't catching Gretzky, you guys are just creating hype due to boredom.
I see most people seen to like this topic but I find it annoying... did you know that if Matthews finishes this year strong, and then has 10 straight 50 goal seasons - he still wont break Gretzky's record? (BTW, the only season Matthews got 50 or more goals was once when he got 60, and he should do it this year too). Let's start talking about this when he is at 700 goals or something (his 327 is not even half way to 700 let alone 900)
matthews' 360 no scope goal is what sold me that he's a truly generational talent. he can execute memes with deadly precision
The problem is the organization he’s a part of.
20 years later: all those goals with the Leafs and no Cup.
Fact is he does next to nothing in the playoffs. I’ve been a Leeds fan for 35 years and it’s always the same excuses. They almost never show up for a full game. Sometimes they think one period is enough or if they feel like it 2 periods. The defence is a joke but what it really comes Mrs down to is work ethic and they just don’t have it.
Hes doing the same thing as ovi and an era that is easier to score in. People need to stop comparing the numbers and wake up to reality which is that mathews will only beat Gretzky and Ovechkin in goals scored because of the rule changes at this rate.
As a VGK fan, it’s just funny that the leafs have had to go through all of this pressure and disappointment in a heated Toronto market, and yet I’m a desert rat that didn’t watch a single ounce of hockey before vgk’s inaugural season, and we win the Stanley cup in our sixth year, without any proven bona fide superstar in our franchises history (except Eichel and maybe fleury) Then I see that Toronto hasn’t won a cup since ‘67, and I just can’t help but feel sorry for the 55 years of Toronto fans that haven’t seen a cup :/
People forget how versatile ovi was in his prime. I think Matthews will have a similar situation where he has to find his sweet spots and stick to that later in his career but no doubt a generational goal scorer
The amount of 40 / 50 goal seasons Ovechkin put up in his 30's is ridiculous. Gonna be hard for anyone to replicate that
Watching this right after witnessing the Leafs blow yet another lead to the Ottawa Senators
Congrats on 100k! A few days ago you were at 90k, glad to see you growing so fast! Love your videos they are all bangers. Keep up the good work 🔥! TDR
327 goals in 511 games
The same criticisms about Matthews is what people said about Ovechkin during his mid-late 20s. He can't keep up this pace, he's going to be slowed by injuries etc. Ovechkin remained remarkably healthy, but he missed time due to lockouts. It's arguable that Ovechkin would be much closer to the record, if not already there if it was not for the time he missed. The truth is we'll never know how Matthews' career will change with injuries or future work stoppages. But I think as hockey fans we should all be excited about the possibility of seeing the record be broken in our lifetime, whether it's Matthews or Ovechkin
This is a great video! Would love to see more of these for other players. Huge fan of the videos where you break down the plays and explain the systems guys are using to have success.
He is truly one of the great players, and it all comes from his stick handling ability and his intelligence at reading a play. Watching him these last few games, what’s truly impressed me was his defensive capability. He’s amazing at breaking up plays, and when he has the puck, it’s very hard to strip him of it.
511 games is an odd reference point. What's the stats look like at 500 games?
I badly want Ovi to break Gretzky's record, and then Matthews to break Ovi's. It's got the air of destiny to it: When Ovi scored that crazy goal in front of Gretzky in his rookie year, Auston Matthews was in the crowd as a little boy.
