After losing in the final of the 4 Nations Face-Off, the Toronto Maple Leafs captain has set his sights on getting gold -- and maybe some payback.
While the upcoming 2025-26 NHL season is going to be one full of highs and lows for the Toronto Maple Leafs and their captain Auston Matthews, the looming 2026 Winter Olympics will be a steady thread of anticipation until the games actually happen next February.
And after losing the 4 Nations Face-Off final to Canada, Matthews is looking to take that international defeat on the chin and go forward with hope for more next year.
