Larkin and the Red Wings paid tribute to Johnny and Matthew Gaudreau before Detroit took on the Blue Jackets Saturday night at Ohio Stadium.

Minutes after losing to the Blue Jackets, Detroit Red Wings captain Dylan Larkin's thoughts were with the family of late Columbus star Johnny Gaudreau.

Detroit Red Wings captain Dylan Larkin planted a proverbial flag at midfield of Ohio Stadium like the Michigan Man he is ahead of Saturday's Stadium Series against the Columbus Blue Jackets.

In eight games in February, Larkin has two goals, three assists and is a minus-6. He is minus-5 in four games since returning from the 4 Nations Face-Off, where he played for the United States team that finished second, losing to Canada 3-2 in overtime in the championship game eight days ago.

Despite losing a heated matchup at The Horseshoe, Detroit Red Wings star Dylan Larkin issued a very emotional statement about the 5-3 loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets.

Larkin had no points and no shots in 18:26 Tuesday in a 3-2 victory in Minnesota. He’s played a lot of hockey – five games in eight nights including the 4 Nations Face-Off championship game – and three of those games went to overtime. But McLellan said that’s not an excuse.

Todd McLellan said Dylan Larkin 'was missing' from the Detroit Red Wings' 5-2 loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets on Thursday at Little Caesars Arena.

After the Blue Jackets defeated the Red Wings 5-2 at Little Caesars Arena in Detroit on Thursday, the two teams have 66 points apiece and hold the first two wild card spots in the Eastern Conference going into their matchup in the 2025 Navy Federal Credit Union NHL Stadium Series at Ohio Stadium on Saturday (6 p.m. ET; ESPN, TVAS-D, FX-CA).

James van Riemsdyk scored twice and the Columbus Blue Jackets beat the Detroit Red Wings 5-2 in a matchup of playoff contenders.
