Auston Matthews, Maple Leafs Overpower Red Wings
5 years agoThe Toronto Maple Leafs needed just 23 shots to defeat the Detroit Red Wings by the score of 4-1 on Saturday night. Center Auston Matthews scored two goals and added an assist. He now has six points in his last three games. Forward Zach Hyman also had two goals and an assist. He’s been playing well since returning from a long-term injury. He has eight goals in just 18 games this season and is on pace to set a career-high in goals despite the missed time. Winger Mitch Marner added two assists to extend his points streak to seven games. He has 12 points during that span. Embattled backup goaltender Michael Hutchinson had his strongest performance of the season by stopping 29 of 30 shots for his first win of 2019-20. The Red Wings may have lost the services of goaltender Jonathan Bernier, who left the game with an injury after just three shots on net.
