Mark Masters is widely recognized as one of the most respected hockey reporters, primarily covering the Leafs and occasionally touching on the World Juniors.
Like all reporters, Masters sometimes asks questions that may be too generic or unlikely to receive a response. This occurred during a recent interview with Auston Matthews.

He inquired about the content of the discussion between Keefe, Matthews, and Marner. Matthews responded assertively:
