Red Wings Announce Sudden Dylan Larkin Injury News After Trade Request

The Detroit Red Wings have announced that Dylan Larkin has suffered an upper-body injury ahead of training camp.

The Detroit Red Wings have announced that forward Dylan Larkin has suffered an upper-body injury while training. Interim general manager Shawn Horcoff revealed that Larkin will not be skating at the start of training camp. This development comes shortly after Larkin requested a trade from the Red Wings during the offseason. As a result, the 30-year-old center has been stripped of his captaincy by the team.

Despite his injury, Larkin's absence is unlikely to deter teams from showing interest in him, as he would be a valuable addition for any NHL team seeking a top-six center. However, Larkin retains complete control over where he will ultimately be moved, given his comprehensive no-trade clause. Larkin had a remarkable 74-game season with the Red Wings last year, tallying 34 goals, 33 assists, 67 points, and a plus-3 rating. His consistency is evident, as he has scored at least 30 goals in each of his last four seasons.
