70 is more. More is gooder. Gooder is better than badder and badder is bad.

Fun fact – the last time 70 goals was scored was 31 years ago.
Another fun fact – the last time 69 goals was scored was 31 years ago.

No. 69 is obviously not better. If Matthews gets 70 he’ll be the first 70 goal scorer of the cap era. Doesn’t matter if anyone gets 79 later, that’s still a fact.

Matthews with 69 and Sundin with 420 as a Leaf are stats I would be proud to brag about for year…until Matthews passes Sundin.

First and only 69 goal scorer of the cap era. Nice.

I’m with that unwritten universal rule: if you want it *too* much, you’ll never get it.
I mean look at us and 2nd round 😖 I’m just saying it’ll be what it is 🤷🏻♂️

Matthews should change his number to 69
MisterBeebo
If he gets 70, he’ll get a release and that’ll deflate him entering the playoffs. If he stays at 69 he’ll stay hungry and look to get fed with a Cup.
This is what I’m telling myself anyway.

Either Matthews will crack 70 at some point or the Leafs all time record will sit at 69 for a very long time. Good times had by all.

Matthews doesn ‘t care about 70 and neither do I. We care about the Cup.

Really original

I can hear it now… 20 years later on sports broadcasts… “despite number of brilliant scoring seasons, he was unable to break through 69… nice”
Marner nylander and Tavares all hung him out to dry on 70.
