Would walking him to UFA in 2 years be a boondoggle?
Or trading him for a lesser return [than now] in 1 year?

Brady is maybe a little bit quicker, bigger and tougher but Matthew is a better overall and offensive player.

Brady has actually matched Matt's rookie year 0.63 pts per game all three years, with a higher ratio of goals. Of course, Matthew increased significantly in the subsequent years...Brady is pretty much exactly as good as rookie Matty.
