Even without their superstar, Auston Matthews, the Toronto Maple Leafs keep winning and will be at Scotiabank Arena tonight to host the Utah Hockey Club. Since Matthews went down with an upper body injury, the Leafs have won 3 straight and 6 of their last 7. The 12-6-2 Leafs have also dominated the boards at home, boasting a record of 9-3-0. The 8-9-3 Club finally snapped a 3-game skid last night with a 6-1 win over the struggling Pittsburgh Penguins but are still just 3-6 over their last 9. Toronto scores more goals per game than Utah, gives up less, and unlike the Club will be well rested after having three days off.
