Moreso than folks give him credit for tbh, not enough to win though
Barkov averaged nearly two minutes of PK time a game, Staal averaged just over two minutes, Matthews averaged just under a minute
Reinhart actually PK'd more than Matthews, averaging just over two minutes a night while putting up 50+ goals
Matthews was the forward with the most shot blocks though if I'm not mistaken, with 93, as well as one of the better faceoff guys in the league with 705 wins and a 53.45%
He was also second in takeaways this season with 85

Thing is, he doesn't PK as much as the others, which is probably why he'll lose to Barkov
