Matthews nets 60th, Leafs beat Red Wings

Auston Matthews scored two goals to reach 60 for the season as the Toronto Maple Leafs defeated the Detroit Red Wings 3-0 on Tuesday night, clinching home-ice advantage in the first round of the Stanley Cup playoffs.

The 24-year-old Matthews, who leads the NHL in goals, snapped a fivegame goal drought and is the first player to score 60 times in a campaign since Steven Stamkos in 2011-12.

John Tavares had the other goal and Jack Campbell made 20 saves to register his fifth shutout of the season for Toronto (53-21-7), which set a franchise record with its 30th home victory of the season.

The Leafs are now locked into the No. 2 seed in the Atlantic Division and will open the playoffs next week at Scotiabank Arena against either Boston or Tampa Bay.
