Toronto Maple Leafs coach Craig Berube spoke openly about Auston Matthews' injury after his return. Matthews missed six games due to an upper-body injury before his return against the Boston Bruins on Saturday. Although he returned to the Leafs lineup, he is still not fully healthy. Berube said the team will manage his workload to help him recover completely.
"We definitely have to manage him and get him to a point where he's fully healthy. " Berube said after the game, via NHL insider David Alter, "And whether that's minutes or a little bit of time off, I don't know. I don't have the answer for you right now, but we're obviously, going to stay in tune with it and try to do what's best for him."
