Simple point for point comparisons are always too simplistic.

I do wonder if there is a bit of Alex/William Nylander here though.
NCAA is tough for an underage guy but even if you compare them both on the USA U-18 development team at the same age there is a gap there.
Matthew: 33 points in 24 games.
Brady: 23 points in 24 games.
Brady will probably be a good NHLer - but can't project that he will be just as good as Matthew because of his pedigree.
