Detroit Red Wings show improvement, but fall to the Anaheim Ducks, 4-3 in a shootout

ANAHEIM, Calif. — The Detroit Red Wings bore down after a shaky start, even as they played with a short bench after losing their captain.

Dylan Larkin didn’t finish Sunday’s game at Honda Center against the Anaheim Ducks after sustaining an upper-body injury, but his teammates put on a much better performance than they had less than 24 hours earlier. They rallied from two deficits and dominated in overtime, but lost, 4-3, in a shootout.

The Wings (16-16-4) were on the ice just 21.5 hours after playing at Los Angeles, in a game that was rescheduled from Thursday because the Ducks had COVID-19 issues.
