Auston Matthews has five-point night as Toronto Maple Leafs beat Washington Capitals 7-3
Toronto Maple Leafs center Auston Matthews grabs the puck during the third period against the Washington Capitals on March 20, 2024, in Washington. The Maple Leafs won 7-3.Auston Matthews scored his NHL-leading 56th and 57th goals of the season and matched his career high with five points, leading the Toronto Maple Leafs to a 7-3 rout of the Washington Capitals on Wednesday night despite Alex Ovechkin moving closer to Wayne Gretzky.
But even on a vintage night for Ovechkin, he took a back seat to Matthews’ pursuit of 70 this season. Matthews scoring twice — with a third, would-be hat trick goal getting called back on a coach’s challenge for offside — put him eight away from tying Ovechkin’s career-best season of 65 from 2007-08, which is the highest since the league’s salary cap era began in 2005.
