Vancouver, British Columbia — This might surprise those people who know Anthony Mantha as a goal scorer.
And, let’s face it, since being promoted to the Red Wings last season, Mantha has done a good job scoring goals, something he was so prolific at in junior hockey.
But there was a play during Sunday’s victory in Edmonton that Mantha enjoyed just as much, or even more.
And it didn’t involve scoring a goal.
It was a linemate, in this case Martin Frk, scoring a goal.
“For me, making plays is just as good as scoring goals,” Mantha said.
