Auston Matthews Reveals the Vibe in Toronto Before the NHL Playoffs

Auston Matthews had a solid season with the Toronto Maple Leafs as he got himself 33 goals and 78 points in 67 games.

Overall, it was a tough season for Matthews as he missed 15 games due to a nagging injury. In fact, this is an injury that made it difficult for him to perform to the best of his abilities.

Now, Matthews must focus on the NHL Playoffs and everything that comes with them. This is the year fans believe the team can win the Cup, and that will be the expectation.

Tomorrow night, the Maple Leafs will play against the Ottawa Senators in Game 1 of their first round series. This is going to be the most compelling series of the first round.

Heading into the series, the vibes in Toronto have been sensational as fans are eager to watch the Leafs get things going.

As for Auston Matthews, he is aware of the vibes and even joked that the traffic in the city is about to be truly atrocious.

At the end of the day, you are measured based on what you accomplish in the post season and the Leafs have not done enough on that front.

Hopefully, this is the year where they are able to change that. The East is wide open so if were ever to happen, it would absolutely be right now.

A Leafs championship would turn this city into a permanent party and it is something you cannot help but fantasize about.
