A highlight-reel goal from Dylan Larkin and a shutout by Petr MrazekAdrian Beltre Jersey was the winning formula for the Detroit Red Wings against the New Jersey Devils. Larkin scored on a breakaway and Mrazek made 22 saves in the Red Wings 1-0 victory on Monday night. Mrazek, appearing in http://www.officialmlbrangersshop.com/authentic-45-derek-holland-jersey.htmlan eighth straight game, earned his second shutout of the season and seventh of his career. Cory Schneider stopped 20 for the Devils, who saw their three-game winning streak snapped. Larkin provided the early theatrics, scoring on a nifty backhander to polish off the breakaway at 9:20 of the first http://www.officialmlbrangersshop.com/authentic-1-elvis-andrus-jersey.htmlperiod. Brad Richards hit Larkin with a long lead pass as Larkin slipped behind the Devils' defense and deked Schneider down to the ice. It was the 14th goal for Larkin, tops among rookies. ''We kind of crossed in our own zone and there wasn't much room for that pass to land,'' Larkin said. ''I just flew. I got my head up quick.'' From there it was a one-on-one Brett Cecil Jerseyshowdown with Schneider. ''I saw he was out pretty far,'' the 19-year-old said. ''He bit on the move, so I got pretty lucky there. It happened so fast, and it turned out to be a big goal.'' As it turned out, the only goal and all the margin Mrazek http://www.officialbluejaysstore.com/authentic-13-brett-lawrie-jersey.htmland the Red Wings needed. Detroit played an excellent defensive road game, limiting the Devils to only five shots in each of the second and third periods. ''The third period was probably the best period we played,'' Mrazek said. ''We didn't give them many chances or good looks. We did a great job stick-on-stick, body on body. We didn't give many opportunities to score a goal.''
