Detroit Red Wings blows two-goal lead, begin road trip with 5-3 loss at Columbus

The Detroit Red Wings began their second extended road trip with disappointment.

Dylan Larkin and Michael Rasmussen provided an early lead, but the Blue Jackets flattened two deficits Monday at Nationwide Arena to hand the Wings a 5-3 loss, overshadowing rookie Lucas Raymond’s fourth multi-point game of the season.

Dylan Larkin scored for the second straight game and Michael Rasmussen got his first of the season, but the Blue Jackets battled back in the second period. Ex-Wings forward Gustav Nyquist set up a goal by Boone Jenner, and Adam Boqvist angled the puck high on Thomas Greiss to tie the game.
