Nate Danielson scored his first NHL goal and added an assist and Dylan Larkin reached the 600-point mark as the host Detroit Red Wings defeated the Seattle Kraken, 4-2, on Tuesday.

Lucas Raymond, Emmitt Finnie and Dylan Larkin had the other goals for the Red Wings, who have won three of their last four games (3-0-1). Alex DeBrincat had two assists and Cam Talbot made 20 saves.

Larkin's empty-net goal with 30 seconds left was his 600th NHL point.

Jordan Eberle and Ryker Evans had the goals for Seattle, which had won its previous two games. Eeli Tolvanen assisted on both goals, while Joey Daccord stopped 24 shots.

There was no scoring until the final minute of the first period. Seattle took advantage of a power play with Simon Edvinsson in the penalty box for roughing Tye Kartye.

Tolvanen took a shot from the right side that Talbot stopped. Matty Beniers collected the rebound and shoveled the puck to Eberle, who tapped it into the net for his eighth goal this season.

Detroit answered with a goal at 1:19 of the second. Raymond, who scored the game-winner against the New York Rangers on Sunday, fired in his sixth goal from the right circle as the puck trickled through Daccord's pads. DeBrincat and Moritz Seider had the assists.

Danielson, appearing in his fifth career game, got credit for his first goal less than a minute later without using his stick. Axel Sandin-Pellikka took a shot from the point that Mason Appleton deflected with his stick. The puck then bounced off Danielson's shin pad and past Daccord two minutes into the second.

Danielson had another apparent goal wiped away when an officials' review determined that the Red Wings were offside.

Evans forged a 2-2 tie at 7:26 of the period. His shot from the left point beat a screened Talbot.

Finnie put the Wings back on top at 10:56 with Jani Nyman in the penalty box for interference. Danielson collected a loose puck and passed it to Finnie, who scored from the left circle.

The matchup began a four-game road trip for the Kraken.
