Larkin missed Saturday’s game with an undisclosed injury, but he skated on the Red Wings’ top line and top power play in the morning skate and is expected to be in the lineup tonight. Larkin has goals in each of his last two games and continues to lead the NHL in plus-minus (+21).
Larkin, 19, was the Red Wings’ first round pick (15th overall) in 2014 and has made tremendous strides since then. In his freshman year at the University of Michigan, he posted 15 goals and 32 assists (47 points) in 35 games. He decided to turn pro after that and scored five points (3G / 2A) in six playoff games with Grand Rapids. This September he was impressive as well, posting three goals, one assists and 15 shots on goal in five preseason games. This resume of work earned him a spot on the opening night roster and head coach Jeff Blashill said he plans on starting Larkin on a line with Henrik Zetterberg and Justin Abdelkader.
