FLASHBACK: Auston Matthews 4 Goal NHL Debut & Makes NHL History (HIGHLIGHTS)
A young Auston Matthews made his name fast in the NHL, with setting a NHL record on day 1. At just 18 years old, Auston Matthews became the first player in the "modern era" dating back to 1943-44 season to score 4 goals in their NHL debut, passing Bobby Carpenter and Jack Hamilton, who each did it at 18.
Let alone, pick-pocketting one of the best defenseman (of the time) Erik Karlsson of the puck to score. Matthews has since crushed other NHL records, including Toronto Maple Leafs history. Including most goals scored by a Leafs player in a single season, Auston Matthews hit 56 goals passing Rick Vaive.
