2016 draft eligible prospect Auston Matthews potted his third goal of the 2016 World Championship on Sunday when the U.S. took a disappointing loss to Germany.
Despite the loss, it was a beautiful goal.
He got the feed from Brock Nelson, who had his shot blocked. Matthews takes a couple of steps into the circle and fires one past German netminder Thomas Greiss.
Watch the goal below.
