Auston Matthews has been trying and trying to get on the score sheet in a meaningful way through the start of the Toronto Maple Leafs' season and on Tuesday night, was finally rewarded for his hard work.
With the Leafs hosting the Nashville Predators, Matthews was able to notch two goals, making it three on the season. And while two of those goals are empty-netters, the Leafs captain was able to finally be on the end of a scoring play at even strength.
