Maple Leafs’ Matthews, Brodie back at practice after missing game with flu

Maple Leafs players Auston Matthews and T.J. Brodie were both spotted at practice on Monday, two days after missing Toronto’s game against the Penguins.

A virus has been working its way through the team since last week, with winger Matthew Knies missing a pair of games, and others playing through their illness.

The Maple Leafs managed just fine without the pair on Saturday, routing Pittsburgh 7-0. Knies was particularly strong in his first game back, picking up a Gordie Howe hat-trick (goal, assist, and a fight).

Matthews is currently tied with the Canucks’ Brock Boeser for the lead league in goals with 23.

The Maple Leafs’ next game is Tuesday, when they host the Metropolitan Division-leading New York Rangers.
