The New York Islanders have their sights set on a playoff berth, and captain John Tavares is doing his part to snag that coveted spot.
Tavares opened the scoring during his club's Saturday-night tilt with the Boston Bruins - who are right in the mix for the Islanders' Eastern wild-card spot - slipping through the the first layer of the Bruins' defense before wiring the puck through a defender's legs.
The goal was Tavares' 28th of the season, and his 65th total point.
