The Toronto Maple Leafs have been without the services of superstar forward Auston Matthews since last month as he recovers from a sprained knee. The good news for the Leafs is that his injury coincided with the lengthy break in the schedule thanks to the NHL All-Star break.
He was back at practice this afternoon for the Maple Leafs, albeit wearing a non-practice jersey:
In 47 games played, Matthews has scored 25 goals with 28 assists. Right now, he's on pace to hit 40 goals scored, not quite on pace for another Rocket Richard Trophy winning season, but still a great offensive production for just about any other player in the NHL not named Connor McDavid.
The Leafs are back in action tomorrow night at Nationwide Arena in Columbus for a matchup against the tanking Blue Jackets.
