While it's often the goal scorer that gets all the credit, this is one of those cases where the set up man did all the heavy lifting.

While Zach Parise certainly deserves credit for beating Columbus Blue Jackets goaltender Anton Forsberg he would have never had an oppurtunity to make the shot where it not for teammate Mikael Granlund.

Granlund saw the open Parise but was faced with a wall of traffic, so instead of a traditional pass he sent a saucer pass over the defense, which Parise was then able to corral and give the Wild a one goal lead.
