A close friend was the agent for Tavares under Octagon when he played in Oshawa and Tavares screwed him and the agency royally late in the process. Plus if you read what really went down in Long Island by those in the know , he fucked them as well by saying that he wanted to stay , even said same in interviews with the media , so they wouldn't trade him then he did an about face and stabbed them in the back by not resigning . Hence wihy he is know as Judas Tavares in Long Island . There is no bigger snake in the NHL . No respect for him , he can stand in front of the net and bang in rebounds, crappy skater....if it wasnt for Marner setting him up on goals that even you and I could score in many cases he'd have 1/3 the goals he has. so no don't like him.
Matthews, good kid, mature , very good player but unfortunately he is made of glass and soft as warm butter. for a guy 6 foot 3 and 225 pounds, he averages 1 hit/check every 3 games . I don't dislike him , but since he gets the brunt of the fan and media attention its kinda the Tiger effect , and so that causes disdain. Kinda hope he gets offer sheeted just to screw things around for the fans 😉 but ya , he's a likeable guy, and from all accounts a good unlike that Dick Tiger, so would never dislike him.
will be cheering for the Bears over them in the first round , but feel the Leafs have the better team this year
