On the play, Matthews recorded his second assist of the game, bringing his career total in points to 700. The nine-year veteran is the fastest Maple Leaf to ever reach that milestone, doing it in 607 games. After the game, the Maple Leafs made a post reacting to it. "Another Matty milestone 👏," they wrote.

It was a record set only a couple of months ago when Mitch Marner became the fastest player in Toronto Maple Leafs’ history to reach 700 points, doing it in 622 regular season games.
