Auston Matthews Nets 29th Goal Of The Season
5 years agoToronto Maple Leafs center Auston Matthews scored his 29th goal of the season in Monday's 6-4 home loss to Edmonton, registering five shots in total. Jason Spezza, Frederik Gauthier, and Pierre Engvall also scored for the Leafs, who found themselves trailing 3-0 before kicking into gear. Matthews is red-hot at the moment with seven multi-point performances in his last 10 outings. He has notched 13 goals since the start of December, which has helped him close the gap with the league-leading David Pastrnak, who sits on 31 markers. The Bruins winger has cooled off quite a bit in recent weeks, so it looks like Matthews is about to take over the lead in the goal-scorers table.
