Tuesday night was a massive one for Auston Matthews as he was able to score two goals against the Nashville Predators in his third game back from injury.

It is an injury that kept him out of nine-straight games, but now, it looks like clear skies are ahead for Matthews.
Auston Matthews does it again
After the match, head coach Craig Berube praised his captain, noting how the captain is getting his groove back
These comments come in stark contrast to what Berube said a couple of days ago, when he felt like Matthews had a long way to go.
Whatever the case may be here, Matthews seems to be back to his old self as he is out her scoring goals and even notching some assists.
In the three games he has played since his return, he has been able to score three goals while adding two assists.
Now, the Leafs have won 10 of their last 12, and they continue to play as if they are one of the best teams in the entire NHL.
