Matthews or BUST

I was listening to Leaf's Lunch today and Patrick O'Sullivan had an interesting take on Matthew's second goal. When he enters the Sens' zone, and just before he steals the puck from Karlsson, he wacks him on the outside of his left leg with his stick. O'Sullivan makes the point that's him wanting to make the player think he's coming up the boards, but then he goes inside and makes the steal.

If this is true, and he can make those sorts of decisions that quickly, this should be a pretty entertaining season.

Maybe we can trade him to Edmonton and Conner can come home and the Austin would be a bit closer to home.

Perhaps.  In 7 years or so.  I imagine Edmonton is gonna want a self life out of their newly anointed Captain.

And the Leafs are gonna want a shelf life out of their history making rookie and soon-to-be captain.

Mike Johnson noted the same detail last night (see game thread)
 
Some idiot reporter asked Auston if the Leafs have consulted him about the parade route at the end of his media scrum.  What a jackass:

Honestly, I think Auston's been pretty classy up till now and I don't think that was called for.  He's also just a kid.

Jackass is the perfect term. Probably an Ottawa reporter is my guess.
