Detroit Red Wings coach Jeff Blashill has set his opening lines, and teenager Dylan Larkin is slotted next to captain Henrik Zetterberg.
Things always can change before the Wings open their season by hosting the Toronto Maple Leafs on Friday (7:30, FSD, TSN), but for two straight practices, Larkin has been with Zettterberg and Justin Abdelkader. Today was Larkin's first practice since being told after Monday's skate he had made the Wings’ roster at age 19, 15 months after being drafted 15th overall.
