Justin Williams, affectionately nicknamed 'Mr. Game 7', just shared a bold take on how he thinks Auston Matthews', one of the greatest goal-scorers of all time, career will end.

In a recent interview with The Leafs Nation, NHL legend Justin Williams shared a candid take on Auston Matthews

"He's gonna be there. I don't think there's any doubt he's gonna be there. It seems like all the great goalscorers have a specific way of scoring. Like Ovi has perfected the one-timer and Auston Matthews has perfected the curl and drag snap shot release. It's just something different, everybody tries to replicate it but nobody can really duplicate it.

He's on pace for those same numbers and does it year over year. Auston is a very humble, matter of fact, focused guy and I can't see him slowing down. Right now I'm sure he's going about his business scoring his goals, It's a conversation that we're really going to have in the years to come. He's going to be one of the greatest goal scorers of all-time."

Given his current scoring pace, it certainly does look like Matthews could be one of the greatest goal-scorers of all time. If he stays healthy, there is a chance he is able to break either Wayne Gretzky's or Alex Ovechkin's all-time goal record.
