Austin Matthews

He is on pace for 74 goals this year. I didn't think it was possible for anyone to hit 70 anymore in today's NHL but he now has a legitimate shot after back to back hat tricks. 

Any predictions on how many he ends up with? 

6 hattricks already this year most since Mario back in 93 I believe. Gretzky had 10 twice! 

On pace to pass Mats Sundin as all-time leading goal scorer as soon as next year 

Hey buddy I scored 4 tickets for Neil Young and Crazy Horse. 

I saw them once before in the 80's so pumped! 

Good on ya man, always a great show, especially with 'The Horse' and the Bud Stage is a great venue I've seen some great acts there, Enjoy 

Regrettably at my age I don't buy anything in advance LOL ,not even green bananas!

69 is my guess

Matthews is nasty 

Guys the best goal scorer in hockey. Period. 

The way he's scoring right now he may get 80, he's got more then a goal a game in his last 31. 34 in his last 31 games.

I'm gonna guess 73, 25 more in 29 games 

Hey leafs what an incredible run he is on!  His shot from just outside the faceoff dot is lethal. 

He has taken that distiction away from Pastrnak imo. 

He pretty good 

@thehuntman

 He's been the best goal scorer when healthy basically from his second season on.

70-80....80 would be insane

@thehuntman

My Leafs have probably the toughest NHL schedule left now Auston (correct spelling) has been scoring these hat tricks against some of the weaker clubs even over the next couple of weeks they have Boston Vegas Avalanche Rangers etc etc so he will be hard pressed I think to get to the 70 but sure hope he does. Everyone spells it Austin so just kidding but if you are ever in a spelling B its Auston lol.

The other thing the playoff race in the East is really tight and things are going to a lot tighter checking as you come down the stretch lot of teams in the race.

yeah he definitely has the trigger-Mike Bossy was my favourite sniper growing up--a back back ended his career too early--can't wait to see McDavid centre his line in the Olympics!

@lookingtowin

I am so out of it I never even noticed I spelled it wrong! 

Thanks for the correction! 

@docpj72

 Who is McDavid centering in the Olympics?

@lookingtowin

 He has scored vs the good teams this year aswell.

@docpj72

 Mcdavid is Canadian, Matthews is American.
