Toronto Maple Leafs captain Auston Matthews was terrible against the Ottawa Senators on Tuesday night and the Ottawa Senators are probably loving it.
Auston Matthews had himself a bad game last night against the Ottawa Senators as he had no points, an injury in the first period, and a game-losing turnover.
While on the power play, the captain made a pass that was intercepted by the Senators. Dylan Cozens eventually scored on the ensuing rush shorthanded.
Now, the Leafs have lost two in a row and they must go back to Ottawa for Game 6 which has a whole lot of fans worried about what is to come.
Auston Matthews and the Toronto Maple Leafs fall flat
As you can see in the clip below, Matthews was livid over his performance in Game 5 and showed it on the Leafs bench.
He ended up crashing out and broke his stick next to all of his teammates. The clip of it is now going viral all throughout social media.
After the game, Auston Matthews attempted to explain what happened on that play and how something like this could have happened. Unfortunately, this won't take back the loss.
"Tried to find Mitchy up top. I thought we kinda drew them in. I didn't see the guy there. He obviously picked it off. That's on me. I gotta make a better play."
Now, the Maple Leafs must get themselves together for Thursday night's game against the Senators which will take place in Ottawa.
Overall, this is going to be a very interesting game and the fans are going to be anxious to see it all play out. If one thing is for certain, no one in Leafs Nation wants a Game 7.
Unfortunately, it feels like we are living through a nightmare all over again, and the play from the team's best players is exactly what you don't want to see.
