Auston Matthews, at only the age of 26, has passed Mats Sundin for the Leafs all-time record of even strength goals. Matthews' 68th goal of the season in last night's loss to the Devils was his 51st even strength goal of the season (the first player to do that in 31 years), putting him one ahead of Sundin's previous franchise record.
Auston Matthews’ second period goal was the 274th even strength goal of his career – the most by any player in @MapleLeafs history.

1. Auston Matthews 274
2. Mats Sundin 273
T3. Dave Keon 269
T3. Ron Ellis 269
Auston Matthews has more even strength goals than everyone in the league save for three guys has goals.
And I just have to reiterate this one point again. Auston Matthews is only 26 and he passed the Mats Sundin in half the time. That's just incredible.
Matthews and Tavares both had two goals in last night's game, but the Leafs still lost.

The Pittsburgh Penguins woke up from their slumber and are racing into the playoffs. Sid the Kid might be 26 again, too.
WHAT A GOAL FOR THE PENGUINS ‼️

Oof.
Seravalli said earlier in the season Coyotes weren't paying their hotel bills and hotels around the league banded together and demanded Coyotes paid for their hotel stays upfront with a certified cheque.

The Leafs last three games are Detroit on Saturday, Florida on Tuesday, and Tampa Bay on Wednesday. That Detroit game might be wild. The Florida game will be a tune-up before the playoffs, people will make a lot about that game even though getting out of it healthy will be the only goal. The Tampa Bay probably won't have any implications for anyone, play the scrubs.
Happy Friday!
