WATCH: Toronto Maple Leafs got chirped HARD at the NHL Awards
Auston Matthews scored 60 goals and 106 points on his way to helping the Toronto Maple Leafs to a 54-21-7 record, finishing second in the Atlantic Division behind the Presidents Trophy winning Florida Panthers.
Matthews walked away from the ceremony last night with the Ted Lindsay Award which is awarded to the most outstanding player in the regular season as judged by the members of the NHL Players' Association. He also won the Hart Memorial Trophy for the most valuable player to his team in the National Hockey League.

As the award shows was coming to a close, the comedian Kenan Thompson ended the night on a joke that the whole league will appreciate (besides Leafs fans).
Congrats to all the winners tonight! Kudos to Auston Matthews! It's nice to see the Maple Leafs win something in June!
Kenan Thompson had to get in ONE last joke to close the show. 😅
