Dylan Larkin Nets Two Points and Big Minutes in Win
6 years agoDetroit Red Wings center Dylan Larkin scored a goal and an assist in Saturday night's overtime win against the Florida Panthers. Larkin picked up the primary assist on Gustav Nyquist's overtime goal, which gave Larkin his seventh point of the season. With seven points in eight games, Larkin is on a 70 point pace which would be a career high but his increase in usage over last year points to it being more sustainable that one may think. After receiving 24:23 minutes of ice time on Saturday Larkin is now averaging 20:24 minutes per game, which is up from his 19:51 minutes per game average from last season. Despite Detroit's struggles as a team, Larkin is set up for a career year.
