Auston Matthews will miss Thursday's preseason game against the Canadiens due to an upper-body injury, which is viewed as precautionary by the coaching staff.
Coach Berube stated that the injury is ‘not serious’ and emphasized that Matthews ‘should be fine’ as he recovers, ensuring fans of his quick return.
Matthews has seen significant success, leading the NHL in goals three times in four seasons, including a career-high 69 goals last season.
The Maple Leafs have four remaining preseason games before they kick off their regular season against Montreal on October 9.
