Coach Todd McLellan had a simple message for Red Wings players, support staff, and his own assistants after Saturday's game.

Raymond, who will represent Sweden at 4 Nations, is tied for fourth in the NHL in assists and tied for sixth in points since McLellan's hiring. Larkin, who will represent the United States, is tied for fifth in goals and ranks ninth in points.

Todd McLellan has coached the Detroit Red Wings for six weeks, and sees progress — and the need for much more as playoff chase heightens.
