Bob Duff: Larkin Good To Go; Nielsen, Athanasiou back in action As the Detroit Red Wings prepared to face the New York Rangers Friday at Little Caesars Arena, there was plenty of good news on the injury front. Center Dylan Larkin, who briefly left Tuesday’s 4-3 win over the Vancouver Canucks - only to return and net the winner in the shootout - was given a clean bill of health after taking one day off from practice. The Wings will also get back both Andreas Athanasiou (leg injury) and Frans Nielsen (concussion) in time for Friday’s game.
