Auston Matthews Tallies Two Assists In Return
1 month agoToronto Maple Leafs center Auston Matthews tallied two helpers in his return on Saturday evening. The captain missed the previous nine contests with an upper-body injury. However, the superstar looked sharp in his return, tallying two points to lead Toronto to victory. His first assist came on the opening goal by Matthew Knies. Later in the third, Matthews would register the primary assist on William Nylander's empty-net goal to clinch the victory. Before his injury, Matthews tallied five goals and six helpers across 13 games with four power-play points. Fantasy managers should expect the former top overall pick to remain a fantasy star for the remainder of the season, especially from a scoring standpoint, playing on the top unit alongside Matthew Knies and William Nylander.
