Yeah, budās getting pulled from a game or two at the end of the
Dude’s trying to get Matthews’ engine going for a couple hatties this week so he can get 70 done with and then take a short vacation before playoffs. Classic high IQ Keefe move
Boooo
Good. Sit him a few games.
Alright so Iāve done the math guys.
Matthews needs:
8 goals in 8 games
If he gets one hatrick( this is needed I think for it to happen), that makes:
5 goals needed in 7 games ,
Letās say one game he gets a power play goal and leys say one game he gets an ENG ( the boys are feeding him) , Now thatās :
3 goals needed in 5 games
3 5V5 goals through 5 games and boom:
70 goal season.
As it should be.
I just want 66
All good, he’s putting up 8 tonight anyways.
68 Goals is good – 34+34
I would rather Matty score 0 more goals during the regular season then be thrown out of the first round.
I mean I want him to hit 70, but if it means Florida pulls their usual bullshit and gives him a concussion in the last game… it’s not enough of a consolation prize.
Fuck that. We should be pushing for 70.
Just need a couple Matt-tricks (4 goals) and sheās wrapped by Saturday
He will end up with 67. A poetic number.
He’s only worried about 69
The easiest solution to this particular conundrum is for Matthews to break Sittler’s 6 goal game record tonight, then pot a couple more next game and then chill for the rest of the season.
Heāll play the final two games if heās sniffing 70 but heāll probably only get 5-7 mins of ice time. Maybe only power play
Heās not wrong, we witnessed so many teams winning the presidents trophy and being swept in the first round
