NBCSN is on the Auston Matthews bandwagon. The home for NHL hockey in the United States announced today that it will televise Matthews’ first regular-season game at Air Canada Centre, this Saturday night at 7 p.m. ET, when Matthews’ Toronto Maple Leafs host the Boston Bruins.
Last night in Ottawa, Matthews, 19, became the first ever player to score four goals in his NHL debut. The Arizona native was the first overall pick in the 2016 draft.
