Matthews scored his league-leading 51st goal in Saturday's 6-3 win over Philadephia.

It was a classic one-timer on a net-circling skate and feed from Mitch Marner in the third. Matthews has goals in five straight games and extended his personal point streak to 12 games (14 goals, six assists). It's also his 250th goal in just 397 games, which makes him the eighth-fastest NHLer in history to reach that mark. Who else is on that list? Wayne Gretzky (302), Mike Bossy (315), Mario Lemieux (324), Brett Hull (328), Alex Ovechkin (366), Teemu Selanne (388) and Jari Kurri (389).
