Olympic hockey champion Alexander Mogilny said the Toronto Maple Leafs forward’s performance Auston Matthews commands respect.
Matthews has scored 62 goals in the current NHL regular season. This is a personal best for the 26-year-old American, as well as a record for Toronto, for whom Mogilny also played.
— Well done Auston! In this sense, he is simply a monster. It’s nice to see that there are real scorers in the league. Feel the goal, shoot, choose a goal position. But he also has a good team around him. “Matthews commands great respect,” Championship quotes Mogilny.
Matthews is three goals away from repeating the 21st century single-season goals record, set by Washington Capitals’ Russian forward Alexander Ovechkin during the 2007-08 season.
