TORONTO -- Maple Leafs forward Auston Matthews is still feeling the effects of an illness that forced him from the third period of Toronto's 3-1 loss in Game 4 of Toronto's first-round Stanley Cup playoff series against the Bruins on Saturday.
Matthews had played through the sickness in Game 3 -- which the Leafs also lost, 4-2 -- and battled again in Game 4 until Toronto's team doctors pulled him out of action for the final frame. The Leafs now face elimination from the postseason in Game 5 on Tuesday and there's no guarantee Matthews will be well enough to dress for the crucial contest.
