Red Wings captain Dylan Larkin knocked out on Saturday night.

The Detroit Red Wings have been given quite a scare on Saturday night.

During the opening period of Saturday night's game between the Red Wings and Ottawa Senators, Red Wings captain Dylan Larkin appeared to be seriously injured when he was on the receiving end of a blow to the head and/or neck area courtesy of Senators forward Mathieu Joseph.

Larkin would remain motionless and face down on the ice for several long moments and appeared to be out cold following what looked like a blow to the head from Joseph.

Larkin had to be helped off the ice when he did eventually regain his senses, but it is far too early to tell how seriously Larkin has been injured as a result of this incident.

Stay tuned for more.
