All eyes were on Auston Matthews on Thursday night as the Maple Leafs’ star set a new franchise record for goals in a season by scoring his 55th and 56th goals, the latter being the overtime winner to send the Leafs home happy with a 4-3 victory. Now, Toronto is in a position to clinch a playoff spot with a win against a team that has given them problems this season; the Montreal Canadiens.
Montreal comes into Saturday night having won two of their past three games, with their latest win being a convincing 7-4 victory over the Devils on Thursday.
