You really think Queef is gonna rest Mathews with just one goal to go? He might limit his playing time but I can't imagine they scratch him

I agree. I think if Matthews does get 70 in the next game though, once he hits it, he'll play 3rd/4th line minutes and then get scratched the last game. Not a lot of teams scratch their star players for 2 games straight before the playoffs because it could throw off their rhythm.

Which is a small part of why Toronto gets bounced from the playoffs every year early*

I hope Matthews plays and scores his 70th and is hurt on the play causing him to miss the next 3 weeks just to teach Leafs fans a lesson on what is important.

*when they actually make them

what a weird comment

Will see who Matthews and Willie are thinking of. Marner the last 2yrs sat out games at the end of the season instead of going for 100 points. Let's see what Matthews and Willie do? Dewar and Gregor need to be in the lineup for Tuesday it will probably get nasty.
