Class-act move by Auston Matthews to rival goalie Juuse Saros during the game!

Toronto Maple Leafs superstar Auston Matthews knows a great hockey play when he sees one. And on Tuesday night, one pulled by opposing Nashville Predators goalie Juuse Saros was so great that the forward had to break from competition to congratulate his rival.

After Matthews shot a surprising wrister at Saros, the netminder got the glove out to stop him.

The play amazed Matthews, who as soon as the whistle blew skated over to the goalie to give him props.
