This is simple guys..
Matthews comparable are McDavid, Tavares, Eichel and the like. He has in his 3 years proven that he is better then Eichel and not at McDavid level just yet. The contract he signed at 11.6 is appropriate for his status as “generational” first pick center.
Marner is good and has really shown he maybe should have been drafted 3rd. His comparable are , rantanen, aho, nylander, Pastrnak, gaudreaux, All really good wings who came into the league in the past 4 years and are not number 1 drafts. Personally I would take Pastrnak or Rantanen over Mitch. I rank Mitch tied with gaudreauex ahead of aho and with nylander ranking last in this group. Pastrnak makes less because he signed a year ago. Today he would maybe sign a deal for 8. In a real world Mitch would sign for about the Draisaitl number but because it is Toronto he will be overpaid. Like I said before, 9.5 x 8 is what it should be. I predict 9.5 x 6 and that it takes until the end of September.
