Abdelkader netted the game-winning goal in Thursday's 3-0 triumph over the Avalanche. After a scoreless first period, Abdelkader gave the Red Wings the lead for good with a power-play tally on a feed from Henrik Zetterberg. The winger has taken on a surprisingly large role in the Detroit attack this season, despite the team's mostly good fortune on the health front. His 12 goals are already a career-best, and his next point will also establish another personal high for a season.
