Matthews scored two goals, one on the power play, in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Jets.

EDGE Analysis

The 23-year-old had gone five games without finding the back of the net, an eternity by the standards he'd set earlier this season, but Matthews shook off his slump and fired home his 19th and 20th goals to give the Leafs a fighting chance. He'll need to heat back up again, and avoid the injury bug, to rekindle hopes of 50 goals in 50 games, but 33 points through 24 games still puts the young superstar on a career-best scoring pace.

Matthews (wrist) led all players with seven shots but did not register a point in Wednesday's 6-1 win over the Oilers.

EDGE Analysis

The NHL's goal-scoring leader returned from a two-game absence and immediately went to work with four shots on goal (and a post) in the opening period. He also received just under 19 minutes of ice time on the night, showing no apparent ill effects from his injury. Matthews has gone a season-long three games without a goal but still tops the NHL with 18. He draws the struggling Canucks on Thursday and Saturday.

Matthews (wrist) will return to the lineup for Wednesday's game against Edmonton, Sportsnet's Chris Johnston reports.

EDGE Analysis

Matthews will return to his usual featured role following his two-game absence, skating on Toronto's top line and first power-play unit against the Oilers. The 23-year-old pivot has racked up 18 goals and 31 points through 18 games this campaign.

Matthews (wrist) skated with the first line during Tuesday's practice and is "hopeful" for Wednesday's game versus the Oilers, Mark Masters of TSN.ca reports.

EDGE Analysis

Matthews was a full participant Tuesday. Following practice, he reported that he was making solid progress, and the team believes he has a shot to play Wednesday. Nevertheless, the Maple Leafs' training staff will re-evaluate the star sniper Wednesday before making a concrete decision, and he could end up being a game-time call.

Matthews (wrist) will not be available for Monday's contest against Edmonton, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

EDGE Analysis

Matthews will miss his second straight game after being deemed a game-time decision. It doesn't sound like it's a very serious injury, so he could be available for Wednesday's rematch with the Oilers. The 23-year-old has 18 goals and 31 points through 20 games this season.

Matthews (wrist) is a game-time decision for Monday's game versus the Oilers, Joshua Kloke of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Matthews practiced Sunday, but he didn't take any hard shots and he didn't participate in line rushes. We likely won't know the final verdict on Matthews' status until warmups commence at 9:30 p.m. EST, and the Maple Leafs may not make a decision until he's evaluated after warmups. If Matthews misses a second straight game, John Tavares will center the first line.

Matthews (wrist) took the ice for Sunday's practice but skated with the extras and didn't take any hard shots, Mark Masters of TSN.ca reports.

EDGE Analysis

Matthews is trending in the wrong direction after missing Saturday's win over the Oilers. The 23-year-old may have another practice session Monday to prove that he's ready to go, but the Maple Leafs could exercise caution with their franchise player. If he misses a second straight game, John Tavares will likely center the top line once again.

Matthews (wrist) won't be available for Saturday's game against the Oilers, David Alter of The Hockey News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Matthews is considered day-to-day with his wrist injury, so he could be back as soon as Monday for a rematch with Edmonton. With Matthews on the shelf, John Tavares is expected to center the Maple Leafs' top line Saturday night.

Matthews (hand) won't practice Friday and is listed as day-to-day.

EDGE Analysis

The league's leading goal scorer evidently sustained a hand injury in Toronto's last game against the Flames and will sit out Friday's practice as a result. Expect further clarification on Matthews' status to surface before Saturday's pivotal clash against Edmonton, which currently sits second behind Toronto in the North Division.

Matthews registered two assists to go with four shots and two PIM in Wednesday's 2-1 overtime win over Calgary. He also won eight of 12 faceoffs (66.7 percent).

EDGE Analysis

After having his 16-game point streak come to an end Monday against the Flames, Matthews was right back at it in the rematch, assisting on a pair of dramatic goals by William Nylander. Matthews has been held without a goal in back-to-back-games yet still leads the NHL with 18, five better than Edmonton's Connor McDavid. He ranks third in the league's scoring race with 31 points, trailing only McDavid (38) and Leon Draisaitl (33).
