After a breakout performance from their top line, the Toronto Maple Leafs are hoping for more when they host the Winnipeg Jets on Monday.
Toronto's trio of Auston Matthews, Mitch Marner and Joe Thornton combined for seven points (three goals, four assists) in Saturday's 3-2 road victory over the Ottawa Senators. Marner led the way with a goal and two assists, Thornton recorded his first goal and assist in a Leafs jersey, and Matthews had an assist and also scored what ended up as the game's winning goal in the third period.
After the trio combined for just two assists in the Maple Leafs' first two games, Saturday's performance was a hint of what is possible as the three forwards continue to jell.
