The naysayers are ready to write off any chance of Toronto Maple Leafs superstar Auston Matthews has at another goal scoring title.
They might be a little too hasty in drawing such conclusions though, as much like the Toronto Maple Leafs themselves, the season start for Auston Matthews hasn’t been without a few bumps.
Namely the fact that six games in, he’s thus far only tallied a single goal. Though in all reality, that’s been enough for people to immediately write off his year – he’s not going to hit 70 goals now!
To be fair, a 70-goal total in the modern-day NHL would be truly remarkable and is having Auston Matthews meeting an incredibly high bar.
