A Detroit Red Wings player returned to the lineup after requesting a trade, facing a mixed reception from fans who had both booed and cheered him in recent games. The athlete scored just 13 minutes into his comeback, contributing to a 5-3 victory over the Ottawa Senators in a home match. His performance marked a swift rebound following his departure demand, though tensions with supporters remained evident. The win added to the team’s momentum in a tightly contested series.

Cheered by the same crowd that booed him last week, Dylan Larkin played for Red Wings for the first time since asking for a trade and scored 13 minutes into his return Tuesday, as Detroit posted a 5-3 win over the Ottawa Senators at Little Caesars Arena.
