The betting odds have been revealed for Matthews next destination, and the hometown Arizona Coyotes are right behind the Toronto Maple Leafs. Matthews spends a lot of of the off-season in Arizona and even has a home there, he also supports the local and university hockey teams. So this list on the next page makes sense, but some teams are definitely a surprise..
Some may be thinking, why Arizona? Well in 5 years time, it is almost certain the Coyotes will be better than the Toronto Maple Leafs as the Coyotes have a ton of top-promising prospects and are taking part in a full-rebuild. When Matthews hits the open market after his 5 years under contract expire in 2024, why would he want to stay a Toronto Maple Leaf if no proven success is done, and more first round playoff exits happen.
