Matthews out vs. Oilers with upper-body injury

The fourth edition of Matthews vs. McDavid will have to wait, as Toronto Maple Leafs forward Auston Matthews will miss Sunday night's showdown versus Connor McDavid and the Edmonton Oilers with an upper-body injury, the team announced.

Matthews collided awkwardly with Leafs defenseman Morgan Rielly late in the third period Saturday against the Pittsburgh Penguins.

Sunday's contest will be Matthews' fifth missed game of the 2017-18 season.
