Auston Matthews has arrived.
The first overall pick in June's draft scored his first goal as a member of the Toronto Maple Leafs on Thursday, and he did it in impressive fashion.
Matthews wired a short-side shot past Carey Price on the power play to cut the Montreal Canadiens' lead to 2-1 in preseason action Thursday night.
We get the feeling it was the first of many from No. 34.
