The Red Wings scored four times in the first eight minutes – Marco Kasper (3:22), J.T. Compher (3:33), Alex DeBrincat (6:16 on the power play) and Patrick Kane (7:53) and were on cruise control the rest of the way.

Coach Todd McLellan saw the Red Wings' seven-game winning streak end, but he didn't pull any punches in his honest assessment of his team's problems.

It will be ushering immensely talented youngsters Lucas Raymond and Moritz Seider to greatness, and making sure the malaise which infected the Red Wings before the coaching change doesn’t happen again.

Now getting to see Raymond through eight games and daily practices, McLellan is understanding how good a player Raymond is, and can be in the future.

Plus a hit parade in Vancouver, a savior in Ottawa, the timeline of witnessing all-time greatness in Washington and much more.

Larkin, Jonatan Berggren and Patrick Kane had power-play goals for Detroit, which also got a goal from Marco Kasper. Cam Talbot stopped 40 shots for the Red Wings, who have won eight of their last nine games.

Larkin scored a power-play goal on three shots and added an assist Sunday in a 6-2 win over the Kraken.

The Detroit Wings are 7-1 since head coach Todd McLellan took over, eager to keep learning what he wants from them.
