Matthews scored Toronto's lone goal in a 4-1 loss to the Hurricanes on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

After missing the first three games of the season and then being held off the scoresheet in three games after rejoining the Leafs' lineup, Matthews finally opened his scoring account as he gave Toronto an early lead in the first period Monday. The 24-year-old has reached 40 goals in each of the last two campaigns, and there's nothing to suggest Matthews will have much trouble reaching that mark again if he can stay reasonably healthy.
