5 years agoToronto Maple Leafs center Auston Matthews scored his 41st goal of the season in Thursday's 3-2 loss against the Stars, putting the 22-year-old in a tie with Bruins right-winger David Pastrnak for the National Hockey League lead in goals scored. Matthews fired a power-play goal past goaltender Ben Bishop to bring his team within one goal of the Stars lead, but Zach Hyman's effort late in the third period would be the only other goal of the contest for the Maple Leafs. Matthews is up to 41 goals — a new career best for the fourth-year forward -- along with 28 assists, 22 power-play points, a plus-12 rating and 69 points through 58 games, making the superstar center a must-start player across all fantasy formats.--Denis Vondrus - RotoBaller
