## Resource

How is Auston Matthews NOT one of the top 10 centres in NHL 27?! Mike DiStefano and Dave Morassutti react to EA Sports' NHL 27 top 10 centres, and there's one glaring omission: Auston Matthews. Despite Matthews being a three-time Rocket Richard Trophy winner, Hart Trophy winner and one of the NHL's premier goal scorers, EA left him out of its top 10, ranking players like Mark Scheifele, Nick Suzuki and Jack Hughes ahead of him. Is Matthews' recent injury history really enough to drop him that far? The guys also make their Locked On NHL Top 100 nominations for the Maple Leafs, debating which Toronto players deserve consideration. Auston Matthews and William Nylander are obvious choices, but what about John Tavares, Matthew Knies, Darren Raddysh, Sergei Bobrovsky and Gavin McKenna? Plus, Dave breaks down the latest development in John Tavares' tax dispute with the CRA.
