I agree, I don't think Brady will be as good as Matthew honestly. I've taken a keen interest this past year watching him and like many have said here the only big selling point on him is that he's bigger and meaner. Some seem to think that Brady's ceiling might be higher, but I think his floor is drastically lower than Matthew's is.

With that in mind Matthew has a better overall package, like our new coach said there aren't 5 players in the NHL like Matthew. So while I think his brother will be a an NHL player for sure I can totally see him being the guy to fall deeper this draft especially with the high end skill in the top 10 alone.

Matthew had better stats in Junior vs Brady in College but also in the USNDTP:

Matthew - U.S. National U18 Team USDP 65games 38g 57a 95pts 114PIM

Brady - U.S. National U18 Team USDP 61games 25g 29a 54pts 127PIM

I don't buy into the hype that Brady will be better, I think people see what Matthew turned into and that's driving up his brother stock but I'm confident we got the better of the two.
