The Maple Leafs superstar captain Auston Matthews was set to miss Tuesday night’s game against the Atlantic Division rival Boston Bruins with an upper-body injury.

The Toronto Maple Leafs actually have a pretty good record without its captain and superstar, and a win over the Bruins provided a glimpse into why, says Ken Campbell.

The Toronto Maple Leafs will play a massively important early-season contest against the Boston Bruins without their newly minted captain. It was announced by the Maple Leafs that superstar forward Auston Matthews would be out of the lineup on a day-to-day basis as he recovers from an upper-body injury.
