Detroit Red Wings News

Larkin left Friday's loss to the Panthers after suffering a non-contact injury on a shot attempt. It didn't look good, but head coach Todd McLellan told reporters post-game that he doesn’t think it's long-term. He added that Larkin will undergo further evaluation to determine a timeline for his return.

Faulk has had an excellent season for a struggling St. Louis Blues team and will join the Detroit Red Wings as they continue their late-season push to return to the postseason. The 33-year-old averaged 22:30 time-on-ice, recording 32 points, 102 blocks, and 49 hits in 61 games with the Blues this season.

After six seasons in Buffalo, Jacob Bryson is now a member of the Winnipeg Jets alongside Isak Rosen a 2027 2nd Round Pick, and conditional 2026 4th Round Pick for Logan Stanley and Luke Schenn. Bryson is 28-year-old and has never surpassed more than 10 points in an NHL season. Through 35 games played in 2025-26, he has two goals, five points and eight PIMs.

Gibson exited Monday's 4-2 win over the Nashville Predators in the first intermission due to an upper-body injury and did not suit up for Wednesday's game against the Vegas Golden Knights. That said, he was back at practice on Thursday and will likely tend the twine on Friday against the Florida Panthers. The 32-year-old Gibson has only lost six of his last 25 games (19-5-1), posting an impressive 2.06 GAA and .925 SV%, leading the Red Wings to a playoff spot over the past two months. The Red Wings enter Friday's contest as -142 home favourites against a struggling Panthers team that extended their losing streak to four games (0-4-0) with a 4-2 loss last night to the Columbus Blue Jackets.

Sergei Bobrovsky's name has begun circulating in trade rumours as the trade deadline approaches, which, along with his inconsistent play between the pipes, has given Tarasov a start on Thursday against the Columbus Blue Jackets. The 26-year-old Tarasov was excellent in his only outing since resuming from the Olympic break, saving 36 of 38 shots (.947 SV%), but did not receive enough goal support, falling 3-2 to the Buffalo Sabres. The Panthers enter Thursday's contest as slight -102 road underdogs against a Blue Jackets team that is 9-1-1 in their last 11 games.

Larkin was the victim of a vicious cross-check late in the third period of Wednesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Vegas Golden Knights and had difficulty regaining composure and exiting the ice, but seemingly avoided major repercussions after returning to the ice in overtime.
