Auston Matthews is the early talk of the NHL season after the No. 1 overall draft pick scored four goals in his debut for Toronto.

Matthews certainly brings great potential. But let's talk reality. Matthews didn't get a point in the Maple Leafs' last game. Winnipeg has its own star rookie in Patrik Laine, who was the second overall choice in back of Matthews. The Jets have three of the best four players on the ice with Blake Wheeler - who has scored a goal in all three of Winnipeg's games and has scored a point in 14 straight - Mark Scheifele and defenseman Dustin Byfuglien. All three players have strong histories versus the Maple Leafs.

Toronto has the worst power play in the league being 0-for-8 with a man advantage. The Maple Leafs ranked 29th in power play efficiency last season so this is no surprise.

The Jets have defeated the Maple Leafs four straight at MTS Centre, including winning by a combined 11-2 during Toronto's previous two visits.

The Maple Leafs did beat Boston at home in their last game. But that was back on Saturday. They've only played two games and figure to be rusty. The Jets should have extra motivation for their home fans as their most famous line in team history - consisting of Anders Hedberg, Bobby Hull and Ulf Nilsson - will be inducted into the team Hall of Fame before the game.
