    The sportsmanship of Anderson to ask an opponent to sign his stick, a rookie who just rocked him, says so much about his character. I love that there's this mutual respect.

      @@christophermanning6146his team won, sure, but I don't think it had anything to do with Anderson. He let a rookie playing his first game put 4 past him. I'd argue his team's offense won the game. There are plenty of games won where a goalie played poorly. You can celebrate those but it's still embarrassing to be outdone by a kid who's playing top level hockey for the first time. Either way, it's still good sportsmanship for everyone aboard

  • @benjaminblakemitchner8365

    Auston Matthews is a great player and you couldn't ask for a more memorable first time. The first time I watched a hockey game I couldn't believe it was real and then I got hooked because most NHL players and hockey in general are Canadians and always have been. I was into Canada before I even knew what hockey was. My big push was their incredible music scene. Then there's all the really impressive cities like Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal. It's a gem of a country and Auston's a gem of a player.

    I never watched that game.. a month earlier I had been diagnosed with breast cancer and I was in shock, missed basically all his first season.. I was spending my evenings on cancer forums, freaking out, researching, and freaking myself out worse! It was an awful time. The only way I can see his first goals is on replays like this now.

    I am a diehard Leaf fan. And I must admit that I cried during that game.

    I was relieved by this game because it reassured he won't be a Patrick Stefan or Alexander Daigle.
