Matthews scored three goals including the game-winner and added an assist in Monday's 6-2 victory over the Lightning.

It was an historic night for Matthews. Not only did he extend his current goal streak to six games and his point streak to 13, the 24-year-old superstar tied Toronto's franchise record for goals in a season with 54, matching Rick Vaive's mark from the 1981-82 campaign. The hat trick was the seventh of Matthews' career, and over that 13-game point streak he's amassed a stunning 17 goals and 24 points. Next up after he claims the Leafs' goal record for himself? Reaching the century mark in points for the first time, as he sits on 92 through 64 contests.
