Maybe it had to do with his team trailing 4-1 in the second period or maybe Dylan Larkin is still upset about what he had for lunch. Either way, the Red Wings captain was not happy about getting knocked down by Dallas Stars defenseman Esa Lindell and he got up swinging.
Take a look as Larkin gets tossed around like a rag doll before actually taking Lindell down to the ice.
To be honest, I wish the referees would have let the two go at it a bit more.
