The Red Wings continue to intrigue in these opening days of the regular season, and possibly no more than Wednesday in Washington.
Dylan Larkin capped a Red Wings rally in overtime with a 3-2 victory over the Capitals.
In overtime, Lucas Raymond carried the puck through the zone and dished it to Larkin near the dot. Larkin wristed a shot past goaltender Vitek Vanecek, Larkin's third goal, and sending the Wings to an impressive victory.
And, again, that was rookies Raymond and Moritz Seider drawing assists during three-on-three overtime on the game-winning goal.
"They're important for growth but that's not why we had them out there," said coach Jeff Blashill of having his two rookies on the ice with Larkin. "We think they give us a chance to make a real good hockey play."
Below, watch the extended highlights.
