Matthews' Drought Deepens as Leafs Spiral Into Atlantic Division Crisis

Auston Matthews is in the midst of one of the longest goal droughts of his NHL career, going 10 games without finding the back of the net as the Toronto Maple Leafs have dropped six straight since returning from the Olympic break. The star center has created plenty of scoring chances - including eight shots in a recent shootout loss to Philadelphia and 10 more attempts in his next two games - yet nothing has gone in, leaving him frustrated but determined to grind through the stretch.
