5 years agoToronto Maple Leafs center Auston Matthews accounted for two of the Maple Leafs three goals in Wednesday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Jets, as the 22-year-old totaled two goals, including a clutch goal with seconds remaining in regulation to force overtime, a plus-one rating and eight shots on goal in the contest. Matthews' multi-goal performance brings his season total up to 31 goals, trailing only Bruins forward David Pastrnak by one for the NHL goal-scoring lead. Matthews should be started across all fantasy formats on a nightly basis, as the fourth-year forward has posted seven goals, four assists and 11 points over the past six games while recording an overall total of 54 points through 45 games on the season.--Denis Vondrus - RotoBaller
