Auston Matthews revealed how he suffered his injury in the playoffs during his end-of-season media availability.

An undisclosed illness forced the Leafs' superstar to miss the fifth and sixth games of the series.

As we often see in post-season interviews, Matthews revealed some details about his condition. He stated that he was dealing with a flu-like virus. However, he remained elusive and didn't want to share the full informations.

He added that the illness wasn't the only thing bothering him. In game 4, he took a hit that forced him to be sidelined.

Here's what he said:

" I got really sick before Game 2. Was trying to recover going into Game 3. In Game 4, I took a weird hit and couldn't go any longer. That is as detailed as I am going to get into it. It was tough. Really frustrating. Sucks. It was killing me to watch."

Do you think the Toronto Maple Leafs would've beat the Boston Bruins in round one if Matthews had been healthy?

More to come.
