Dylan Larkin's preseason debut made the Detroit Red Wings' No. 1 line whole again on Sunday.

Larkin returned to the ice in the fourth of nine games before the regular-season opener after recovering from a heel injury. With Larkin at center and Anthony Mantha and Tyler Bertuzzi on the wings, the Wings scored two second-period goals.
