Video Of Day: Henrik Zetterberg 5th career hat trick


New Red Wings captain Henrik Zetterberg did it all versus the Blues on Friday 2/1. He notched his fifth career hat trick in Detroit’s exciting home win over one of the league’s best. Detroit benefited from an awful call on Blues captain David Backes, who was assessed a five-minute major for checking to the head late in regulation. The NHL rescinded it.

Like good teams, the Wings took advantage. Zetterberg, who earlier scored his second on a breakaway- completed the trick by outmuscling T.J. Oshie. This far, he’s been the right choice to replace Nick Lidstrom. The results have been mixed with Detroit 4-3-1 following a loss to Columbus. But you can be darn sure that their success will be because of Zetterberg and human highlight reel Pavel Datsyuk.

    He also had two assists in this game, I took notice of it at the time cause he was the first offensive player I drafted on my fantasy team lol. The empty-netter might have been one of the best empty-net goals I've ever seen, he willed that puck into the net.
