With only days remaining in the regular season, you might think that this matchup between Atlantic Division rivals would have very little to offer as both teams prepare to enter the playoffs. WRONG. There is plenty at stake tonight for both the Maple Leafs and the Panthers.
Toronto's center, Auston Matthews, is chasing his 70th goal on the season. He is the first player to hit 69 goals in a season since Mario Lemieux did so in the 1995-1996 season. Matthews has also been on a tear offensively- eight straight games with a goal and has 107 points for the season.
