Auston Matthews Faces Backlash: What Really Sparked the Maple Leafs’ Playoff Collapse?
“I don’t think there’s really any excuse or explanation,” Matthews said of the team’s lifeless performance. “We’ve got to win a game to keep our season alive.”
Matthews, 27, is in the second year of a four-year, $53 million contract, and it’s possible it will be his last season playing alongside fellow star Mitch Marner.
Marner, 28, led the team with 102 points this season but is heading toward free agency this offseason.
