This wouldn't have been possible without William Karlsson's Sportscenter-esque pass to Howden. However, the newly extended forward has developed his offensive skill set, becoming better with his positioning and shot. In turn, it's led to him having a career-high in goals after Friday's game.
That goal is a perfect example, as the Jets are distracted with Karlsson. Little do they know that Howden pulls up to Mike Comrie's stick side for the game-winner. It's a perfect example of how the forward has developed into an all-around weapon for his team.
With each passing game, Kelly McCrimmon looks more intelligent for locking the 26-year-old to a five-year, $2.5 million AAV deal. It's a move that'll help with keeping a big name like Jack Eichel around. However, It'll also provide ample offense in the lower lines, making the Golden Knights more dangerous offensively.
