Toronto Maple Leafs Injury Problems Getting Ridiculous

The Toronto Maple Leafs will be without Auston Matthews as they begin a three-game series against the Edmonton Oilers.

Matthews was injured as he fell awkwardly into the boards in the Leafs game against Calgary the other night. You could see Matthews getting his wrist taped on the bench during the game, and then he stopped taking faceoffs.

Since he didn’t practice yesterday, missing today’s game was expected, but it still sucks.
