DETROIT -- Dylan Larkin had two goals and two assists to help the Detroit Red Wings win their fifth straight game, 4-2 against the Edmonton Oilers at Little Caesars Arena on Sunday.
Larkin, who has 11 points (five goals, six assists) during a six-game point streak, also helped hold Connor McDavid to two shots and zero points.
“It is especially difficult when Connor and Leon (Draisaitl) are out there together, because Connor can speed the game up and Leon can slow it down,” Red Wings coach Todd McLellan said. “But Dylan can skate with Connor. Tonight, he accepted the challenge and did a great job.”
Emmitt Finnie scored his first two NHL goals and added an assist for the Red Wings (5-1-0). John Gibson made 16 saves and had an assist.
“I don’t think there’s a secret sauce,” McLell
