Tavares scored two goals, one on the power play and an empty-netter, in Friday's 3-1 win over the Red Wings.
Tavares snapped a three-game point drought and a four-game goalless skid in a timely fashion, scoring the game-winner in the second period and closing out the scoring with an empty-netter with only 1:30 left in the contest. Tavares is up to 13 points this season, and his seven goals rank second on the team behind only William Nylander's 10. Tavares also has three multi-point efforts in his last six appearances.
