Of course, ties no longer exist, so it’s kind of an asterisk situation, but it’s still cool. The Toronto Maple Leafs are now just one point won by them or lost by their rivals from clinching, but that too has been a forgone conclusion for a while now.
What is the best, in my opinion, out of the myriad of interesting records/accomplishments that have gone down recently, is the Leafs having three thirty goal scorers.
When Auston Matthews scored 9 minutes and 24 seconds into last night’s game, he hit the 30 goal mark for the second straight season.
