Auston Matthews accidentally revealed as Toronto Maple Leafs next captain?

When John Tavares was named captain of the Toronto Maple Leafs there was a prevailing thought that the role was actually reserved for Auston Matthews. Unfortunately some off ice legal trouble cost Matthews the role after he reportedly failed to inform the organization of his mistake. Since then Matthews has assumed the role as assistant captain, with many now clamouring for him to assume the role as captain.

After another disappointing playoff loss it now appears the debate is raging once again. However, in his most recent YouTube video Logan Paul may have just revealed that Matthews could be the next Maple Leafs captain. The below screenshot came from a video posted on Paul's YouTube page.

The screenshot comes from Paul's recent video and can be found at 12:16 of the video.

While this could simply be an error on the editing part, it could also be a precursor of things to come. With the Maple Leafs looking to change the culture, stripping John Tavares of the C and giving it to Matthews would go a long way to doing that.

Only time will tell what the Maple Leafs have planned but this is truly a subject we will need to follow.
