A trio of Toronto Maple Leafs rookies combined to make NHL history over the course of the team's first two games of the season.
Following Auston Matthews' four-goal performance in Ottawa on opening night (which accounted for all of Toronto's goals that game), it was Connor Brown and Mitch Marner who scored the first two goals Saturday against Boston.

As a result, the Maple Leafs are the first team in the NHL's expansion era (since 1967-68) to have rookies score each of their first six goals in a season, according to Elias Sports.
James van Riemsdyk scored Toronto's third goal in the 4-1 win over the Bruins to end the streak, and while Matthews deserves the lion's share of the credit, it's clear the 2016-17 Maple Leafs are no one-man show.
