Nathan McKinnon (Aves), Auston Matthews (Leafs), Connor McDavid (Oilers), and Nikita Kucherov (Lightning) are the 4 NHL MVP leaders with each one having a strong case.

All four play tonight:

  • The Lightning play their in-state rival Panthers, who hold the best record in hockey (6pm ET on ESPN+/Hulu)

  • The Leafs host the Hurricanes with their newly acquired forward, Jake Guentzel (7pm ET on NHLPP|ESPN+)

Matthews leads the NHL in goals (55) and has been on a quest to be the first to reach 70 goals since 1993 when Teemu Selanne and Alexander Mogilny both finished with 76 goals.
