If he keeps this up Auston Matthews will finish with one of the best rookie seasons the NHL has ever seen.

The Toronto Maple Leafs’ 19-year-old sensation scored twice, including the overtime winner, in last Sunday’s Centennial Classic. As of Jan. 3, he is tied for the scoring lead among all first-year players with 20 goals and 34 points through 37 games. Winnipeg’s Patrik Laine has the same number of points, but has played three more games.

I don't think I'm surprised any more.
