Auston Matthews

Auston using his big butt several times to be physical last night is a great move that he's incorporated, seeing as how he has an injury prone shoulder. He dumped and chased on the 3rd goal, recovered it with a butt check on the defenceman, passed and scored on the return. He also shielded the puck with his butt on the 1st goal and passed it to Hyman. Great to see, Auston keeps coming up stuff to work with what he's got.

Starting to throw checks on a regular basis. Maybe it will convince some others to follow suit. His game just keeps improving.

When I first saw him live during the Arizona game, I couldn't believe how big a man he actually is. I'm really enjoying the uptick in his physical game, he has the size and co-ordination to really dominate if he continues on this route, with the pugilist angry Finn out there as well.

And the speed that he does things. From skating to stickhandling he's more impressive live.
 
The only thing stopping Matthews hitting a historic 50 goal season, is a historic viral pandemic

How very Leafs

Just means he'll come back even harder and score 50 goals before the 71 game mark next season.
 
Let?s talk about Auston...a tale of two seasons:

2016-?17

2019-?20

The only other players to have scored 47 goals in 70 games are David Pasternak and Alex Ovechkin.  You?re in good company, Auston.

If only, if only...

I see a lot of Mats in Auston, this backhand winner so much like the Winter Classic one against Detroit. Both number-one centers on the Leafs, both 6'3" and can use their size for positioning, both with great hands and they even share the same on-ice shout-out: "MAT(T)S!" What are the odds ;D

I'm sure he prefers hope and playoffs much more. Plenty of time to go home in his elder years ;) Maybe him and Connor will do it after the runs in their respective cities.

I can totally see Matthews go home one day for a boatload of picks, Conner will come home for a boatload of $$$$$$$$$ and visit JT in his old folks home.
