Sitting just outside the Playoffs, with a 23-15-9 record, the Maple Leafs have ushered in a new, exciting era that fans of the team still can’t believe is really happening. Mostly because of Auston Matthews.
Auston Matthews Is Amazing
In the last thirty years, the Leafs have been blessed with some pretty amazing players: Hall of Famers Mats Sundin and Doug Gilmour. Eventual Hall of Famer Phil Kessel, and Should-be Hall of Famer Vincent Damphousse.
It’s an impressive selection, even if they team has never won. The thing is, as good as those guys were, they were always second tier super-stars.
