Matthews boasts NHL’s top-selling jersey in October

Auston Matthews' popularity is second to none.

More people bought the Toronto Maple Leafs' rookie sensation's jersey than that of any other player in the month of October, the NHL announced Tuesday night.

Here's the full list:

Rank Player
1 Auston Matthews
2 Sidney Crosby
3 Connor McDavid
4 Patrick Kane
5 Jonathan Toews
6 Henrik Lundqvist
7 Claude Giroux
8 P.K. Subban
9 Alex Ovechkin
10 Anze Kopitar

Matthews' feat is especially impressive considering his jersey wasn't even available for two whole days after his historic four-goal NHL debut Oct. 12 against the Ottawa Senators.
