Auston Matthews had a career post-season game in game 2 against the Bruins, scoring the game-winning goal in the third period and getting a point on all 3 goals for the Leafs. However, some concerning news has just broken today, that Matthews is absent from practice today.
There have been no details revealed as to why Matthews isn't at practice today, and it is likely that it could just be rest/maintenance for game day skate. However, it is still concerning for fans, who have voiced that on social media.
Now, it has been revealed by Elliotte Friedman that Matthews is taking a rest option today, which should alleviate concerns from Leaf fans.
