Now, Auston Matthews has not only tied him for most goals in Maple Leafs franchise history, but moved ahead by 1, scoring goals number 420 and 421 against the Islanders.
Sundin broke Darryl Sittler's record when he notched his 390th goal in a Leafs uniform back on October 11, 2007, adding another 30 before he left for the Vancouver Canucks as a free agent.
Many, Sundin included, thought Matthews would set the record last season, but injuries led to the former first-overall pick only scoring 33 goals.
Matthews has been on a tear since the Leafs came back from the Christmas break, with 8 points in 3 games heading into Saturday night. That includes a hat-trick and a four-point night on Thursday in a 6-5 win against the Winnipeg Jets. With two goals tonight, Matthews has made a statement that he's undoubtedly back.
With two years left on his deal, Matthews should find himself in untouchable record territory at the end of it - if he plays out the rest of his deal with the Leafs.
