This means that it’s as good a time as any to take a look at some individual stats and see how the Toronto Maple Leafs players are performing so far this year.
No need for much of a preamble, let’s jump right to it:
Goals
Auston Matthews leads the Toronto Maple Leafs with 22 goals in 41 games. This is an impressive total, as it’s over a 40 goal pace for an entire season.
What’s more, 17 of those 22 goals are 5v5, where goal scoring is harder and more important. Even though he missed ten games, Matthews is just three off the NHL lead for 5v5 goals, a title he won last year.
