Anthony Gruppuso / USA Today
There have been plenty of goals in Sunday's game between the New York Islanders and Detroit Red Wings, but John Tavares may have set up the best one.
Tavares faked a shot and slid a no-look, between-the-legs drop pass to Ryan Strome, who beat Petr Mrazek to tie the game in the first period.
The two teams combined for six goals in the opening frame and the Islanders chased Mrazek early in the second.
