    John Tavares insists he's more concerned with wins than his own numbers. Still, the New York Islanders' leading scorer took a moment to marvel at his 100th NHL goal and his team's resurgent play.

    The 22-year-old center scored two power-play goals in the third period to lift the Islanders to a 5-2 win over Washington, ending the Capitals' three-game winning streak. The Islanders won for the third time in four games and improved to 11-11-3, one point behind the Rangers for the final Eastern Conference playoff spot.
