In Toronto Maple Leafs history, there are many stories that have been told.
Some haven’t. Perhaps, it’s because those sources can’t be trusted. Here is one of those stories, first told by Kevin, a dishwasher at a failing diner in the suburbs of Toronto. Kevin heard it from his cousin, who heard it from her psychic who specializes in clairsentience.
The story Kevin heard is the not-so-accurate tale of why Auston Matthews decided to try and grow one of the best mustaches in Maple Leafs history.
Ahead of the 2019-20 season, Auston Matthews came to camp with a duster, looking more like Lanny McDonald than Tomas Kaberle.
