Massive four-point game Matthews (lower body) scored three goals and added an assist in Thursday's 6-5 win over the Jets.

Impact It was Matthews' 14th NHL hat trick. His third goal stood as the winner; it was his 419th regular-season snipe in the NHL, which puts him one goal from tying Mats Sundin for the most in franchise history. Matthews is on a personal three-game point streak (interrupted by injury) that includes four goals, four assists and 19 shots. He suddenly seems inspired, and that's the best gift that his managers received this holiday season.

Out of action Tuesday Matthews (lower body) won't play Tuesday versus the Devils.

Impact Matthews' injury, sustained Sunday versus the Red Wings, will end up costing him at least one game. His next chance to play is Thursday versus the Jets. In Matthews' absence, look for John Tavares to move up to the first line, while Nicolas Roy and Scott Laughton could also be set for increased minutes.

Game-time call against Devils Matthews will be a game-time decision against the Devils on Tuesday due to a lower-body injury.

Impact Matthews sustained the injury while blocking a shot in Sunday's 3-2 overtime loss to Detroit. William Nylander (lower body) is not expected to play Tuesday, so the Leafs may be without two of their most prolific offensive weapons for this fast-paced matchup. If Matthews ends up being unavailable, John Tavares will most likely center the No. 1 line.
