Auston Matthews, Team USA World Juniors’ star ignite bromance over Twitter

A social media hockey love story.

Even current USA hockey stars are in awe of their World Junior teammates. An incredible shootout win over Russia that has propelled Team USA to the gold medal game was made possible thanks to two goals in the extra time by Troy Terry.

This one, in particular, was a dandy.

The filthy goal was enough to attract the attention of current NHL standout Auston Matthews, who’s tweet was pretty succinct but still a worthy reaction to the dangle the world just witnessed.

Terry, of course, picked up on Matthews’ tweet and ignited a USA Hockey bromance for the ages.

The two apparently have history, as Matthews and Terry both played for the USA Hockey National Team Development Program in their youth!
