Even though Auston Matthews is currently tied with Martin Necas for 50th in NHL goal scoring, the Toronto Maple Leafs are mounting one of the quietest runs this town has ever seen.
Perhaps it’s because we already know that the Toronto Maple Leafs are a proven regular season winner, but for a team that has picked up points in nine of their last ten games, and considering what team we are talking about, things seam suspiciously quiet.
The Leafs laid a solid beating on the hapless Sabres last night and Mitch Marner continued his quiet climb up the NHL leader board with his 17th point during his current 12 game point streak.
