Agreed but I don't agree that Matthews and Laine are scoresheet princesses. Matthews has the look of a Franchise center out there. He has the size and skill to be a top 10 player in the game. 42 goal pace as a 19 year old as well. Laine is a big dynamic winger with elite goal scoring potential. Tkachuk is on his way to becoming my favorite Flame but replacing him with a Matthews or Laine and I think Calgary is a completely different team and higher in the standings. Matthews and Laine both have almost double the goals that our leading goal scorer Backlund has.
