The last thing the Detroit Red Wings need right now is more injury trouble, as they’re already without captain Dylan Larkin thanks to a suspension and potentially longer thanks to a neck injury suffered during last game against the Tampa Bay Lightning.
Forward Filip Zadina has gone to the dressing room after suffering a hit to the head from Vancouver Canucks forward Conor Garland:

During the ensuing scrum, Canucks captain Bo Horvat and Red Wings forward Michael Rasmussen engaged in some wrestling; both players would be penalized, along with Garland, who received two minutes for illegal check to the head:
