Matthews scored two goals and added a power-play assist in Tuesday's 5-4 win over the Blue Jackets.

EDGE Analysis

Matthews helped William Nylander open the scoring with the extra man, then doubled Toronto's lead later in the opening frame, poking home a gorgeous through-the-legs pass from Michael Bunting. Late in the second, Matthews scored his second goal of the game and 17th of the season, giving Toronto a 5-1 lead just seven seconds after John Tavares had made it a three-goal margin. Matthews' latter tally turned into the game-winner when Columbus cut the Maple Leafs' lead to one goal with one second remaining in the third -- surprisingly, it's the first game-winner during Matthews' seven-game, 10-goal streak.

The 24-year-old has lit the lamp eight times during a six-game goal streak, adding two assists in that span.

He also has 27 shots in those five, including a whopping 16 in his last two games.

Matthews scored three goals on eight shots in Wednesday's 8-3 win over the Avalanche.

EDGE Analysis

Matthews stretched his goal streak to four games with his third multi-goal performance of the season and first hat trick since April 10 against Ottawa. Perhaps his mustache had been weighing him down, as Colorado had absolutely no answer for a clean-shaven Matthews following the expiration of no-shave November. The reigning Rocket Richard Trophy winner has a lot of ground to make up on Leon Draisaitl, who has already reached the 20-goal mark, but we're not even one-third of the way through the season, and Matthews has almost as many goals in the last four games (six) as he did in his first 17 (seven).

EDGE Analysis

Matthews' two-point effort snapped a two-game mini-slump. The star center is up to eight goals, nine assists, 80 shots on net and a plus-3 rating in 18 contests.
