DETROIT – Dylan Larkin isn’t a favorite of Red Wings fans anymore.
Larkin was introduced before the start of Friday’s regular season opener at Little Caesars Arena and was roundly booed by the crowd.
Larkin, who was placed on injured reserve earlier in the day, was on the bench along with other healthy scratches.
Larkin requested a trade from the Wings in early June, but one hasn’t materialized and may not for the foreseeable future as the Wings look to get equal value.
Larkin, a native of Waterford who played collegiately at Michigan, was stripped of his captaincy before training camp began.
Injured while preparing for the upcoming season, Larkin began skating with the Wings last week.
