That&#8217;s what happens when you skate on the top line with Matthews and Marner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Alberta native has five points in his last five games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Matthews anytime goalscorer (-110):<\/strong> Matthews has missed some time this season with two separate stints on the injured list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He has 20 goals in 35 games this year and is on pace for 46 over an 82-game stretch. That&#8217;s not exactly the type of production we&#8217;re used to seeing from the three-time Rocket Richard winner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This month, Matthews has returned to full form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The sharpshooting centre has nine goals and 15 points in his last 11 games with a whopping 26.5% shooting percentage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Matthews snapped his five-game goal streak on Saturday against Ottawa, but I believe he starts up a fresh one tonight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Picks made at 1:50 p.m. ET on 01\/29\/2025.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Toronto Maple Leafs host the Minnesota Wild on Wednesday night.
