Auston Matthews Finally Scores First Playoff Goal And It's a Beauty
The Lightning did a good job restraining Auston Matthews in the first two games of the series. The 2022 Maurice Richard Trophy winner had only two assists before the start of game #3.
Matthews Finally Scores and it's a Beauty
In the first period, he skillfully deflected a shot by Mitch Marner to beat Andrei Vasilevskiy and give his team the lead.
This is his first goal of the series, and if the Leafs want to win, they'll need him to step up.
Let's hope he can score many more and help the Leafs finally reach the second round.
