Dylan Larkin returning to Red Wings lineup
Dylan Larkin is going to make his season debut with the Red Wings on Tuesday, Oct. 6 against Ottawa.
DETROIT — Dylan Larkin is set to return to the Red Wings lineup on Tuesday, October 6 against Ottawa. Fans at Little Caesars Arena will undoubtedly have a lot to say about the former captain's return. Larkin had requested a trade away from Detroit in June, following the team's 10th consecutive playoff-less season in the spring. However, the Wings refused his request, as former general manager Steve Yzerman could not find a suitable trade proposal for him.
Yzerman was replaced by interim GM Shawn Horcoff two days before the start of training camp, but no closer deal on a trade came about. Larkin has been seen centering between Lucas Raymond and Viktor Arvidsson during practice on Tuesday, October 6. This story is still developing and further updates will be provided.
