Leafs' Matthews returns after 4-game absence

Auston Matthews is back.

The Toronto Maple Leafs star center is in the lineup for Saturday's game in Montreal against the Canadiens, ending a four-game absence due to an upper-body injury.

Toronto posted a record of 4-0-0 without Matthews, but the Leafs will gladly welcome him back given the 10 goals and nine assists he recorded in 16 games prior to the injury.
