Matthews has the better.
Tavares has a slight advantage out front with tipping shots.
Tavares is a lot better defensively, even tho Matthews is improving on that side of his game.
Matthews can make other players look really good. Let’s look at johnsson for example, he’s playing and now he’s pretty much untouchable for the leafs cuz Matthews line has been the best line the leafs have had all year.
Tavares and marner help each other out in many ways. Marner feeds Tavares the puck and sets him up which is job. Tavares is the one putting the puck in the net and finishing marners plays off. Marner is a elite player and so is nylander.
Tavares is a leader Matthews doesn’t have that yet. Even tho Matthews has called the team out.
