GIF: Franzen, Zetterberg combine to score pretty goal on Maple Leafs
Tom Szczerbowski / USA TODAY Sports
Detroit Red Wings fans have seen Henrik Zetterberg and Johan Franzen team up to score plenty of goals over the years, but one of the prettiest may have come on Friday night.
Zetterberg had a step on Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Jake Gardiner as he carried the puck into the Leafs zone. Zetterberg skated in front of the net, and delivered a slick behind-the-back pass to Franzen, who buried the one-timer for his second goal of the game.

An apparently-injured Franzen went to the locker room after the goal.
