Auston Matthews hurt after blocking a shot on Saturday.

The Toronto Maple Leafs have been given quite a scare on Saturday night.

Maple Leafs star forward Auston Matthews has been forced to retreat to the locker room after being shaken up by a slap shot courtesy of the Vancouver Canucks' Noah Juulsen.

 No updates on the status of Auston Matthews just yet, but stayed tuned for additional details.

Update: Matthews did not initially come out for the second period, but is now on the Maple Leafs' bench.
