Maple Leafs’ Matthews Scores 40th Goal, Leads Team to Victory

Third-Period Tally Proves to Be Game-Winner

Sensational Season Continues for Toronto Star

Toronto Maple Leafs star Auston Matthews continued his remarkable season on Tuesday night, scoring the game-winning goal in the third period to lead his team to a victory over the Winnipeg Jets. Matthews also added two assists, bringing his point total to 78 on the season.

Matthews' goal came at a crucial moment in the game, with the Maple Leafs trailing 2-1 in the final period. The centerman took a pass from Mitch Marner and fired a shot past Jets goaltender Connor Hellebuyck to tie the game. Matthews then assisted on a goal by William Nylander just three minutes later to give Toronto the lead.

The victory was the Maple Leafs' fourth in a row, and it moved them into a tie for first place in the Atlantic Division. Matthews now has 40 goals on the season, which is the most in the NHL.

The Maple Leafs will be back in action on Thursday night when they host the Boston Bruins. Matthews will be looking to continue his torrid pace and help his team extend their winning streak.
