JM_ Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 thats a great deal for a stay at home D man with one year under his belt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glory_Days Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 Wow...is all I can say. Did Flordia learn nothing from Ekblad's contract? Matheson is a very good young D who in a couple years time, may be worth his weight in gold with that contract...or he could flounder as many promising young players do, never live up to the hype/potential and this contract will be horrible. No idea why they did this, he still has 2 years left on his ELC, my god, watch him play this year and then if you have to pony up a little bit more cash, then do so.

Kid started out like he was going to be a Norris trophy winner, then dropped off a cliff. That wasn't so much bad drafting as bad coaching / training.

I think we'll find that Matheson is one hell of a defenseman though. If only Florida had left Tallon at the wheel throughout. Everyone makes 'mistakes' / takes losses or risks that don't work out - he's just less shy about cutting his losses than most GMs. I think people get carried away overestimating the impact of 'mistakes' though. If we look at some of the things the Chicago Blackhawks have done in the past five years we could guffah for pages - but it's the bigger picture / overall performance that really matters.

He sure did... he got 80 points in 200 games out of him (33 points per 82 games) and then traded him for Nick Leddy. Tallon got his moneys worth.
