Auston Matthews Travels to Germany for Injury Treatment

The Maple Leafs captain seeks specialized care for an upper-body injury sustained earlier this month.

Maple Leafs captain Auston Matthews is in Germany for treatment of an undisclosed upper-body injury, accompanied by a team doctor.
Matthews has been out since November 3 and is expected to miss at least two more games, with potential return dates speculated for November 24 or 27.
General Manager Brad Treliving emphasized that the visit is not alarming and aims to expedite Matthews' recovery during a light game schedule.
The team has been cautious about revealing details of Matthews' condition, labeling him as day-to-day to protect player privacy.
Toronto is currently dealing with multiple player absences, including forwards Max Pacioretty, Calle Jarnkrok, and David Kampf.
