Red Wings' Zetterberg sets up goal with no-look backhand pass

Henrik Zetterberg wasted no time in making an impact in his return to the Detroit Red Wings' lineup.

Out of the lineup since Feb. 21 with an upper-body injury, Zetterberg helped his club open the scoring in Wednesday's game against the New York Rangers, sending a picture-perfect no-look backhand pass to Justin Abdelkader, who directed the puck into the net.

The play was reviewed to ensure the goal was not scored on a clear kicking motion, but the call stood and Zetterberg was rightly credited with his 35th assist.
