McDavid, Matthews set to lock horns, show off what they’ve learned
Auston Matthews and Connor McDavid spent a portion of the off-season training alongside one another, Mark Masters writes, but tonight the star centres go head-to-head in Toronto as the Maple Leafs host the Edmonton Oilers.
TSN Toronto Reporter Mark Masters reports on the Maple Leafs, who held an optional skate on Wednesday morning at Scotiabank Arena. The Oilers held a full skate.
After spending part of the off-season training alongside one another, Auston Matthews and Connor McDavid will do battle tonight in Toronto. He s very dialed in, observed McDavid of the sessions in Arizona. His whole life is wrapped around it, obviously, as it should be. It was impressive to see how hard he works and how much detail goes into it.
