Auston Matthews has scored nine goals in 10 games since returning from an upper-body injury.

Matthews ' next goal will be 389th in the NHL , tying him with Darryl Sittler for second -most in Leafs history.

Goaltender Anthony Stolarz was on the ice for part of practice for the first time since he had a knee procedure on Dec. 18 .

“Every time it’s on his stick, I’m expecting it to go in, just like last year , where it was like he couldn’t miss,” Leafs winger Ryan Reaves said. “It looked like he was playing a video game out there, and it looks like he’s doing it again. It’s good to see.” [email protected] X: @koshtorontosun.
