Larkin, who's mired in a five-game pointless drought, is accepting responsibility for Detroit's seven-game losing streak, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

In all actuality, the entire Detroit team is in disarray, but Larkin is a true professional with an infectious attitude, and it's no surprise to see him shoulder the blame for the team's brutal skid. However, perhaps more surprising than Larkin's point drought is the fact that he's minus-5 over that span. After all, he certainly has the wheels to keep up with opposing goal-scorers. "We need a win bad," Larkin said. "We need to get our confidence back as a team. We've played good, we haven't played good consistently. We just need to get two points and grind out a win and pick up from there."

Larkin scored a goal on two shots in Tuesday's 5-1 loss to the Canucks.

EDGE Analysis

Larkin broke free in the Vancouver zone and beat Canucks goalie Thatcher Demko just 30 seconds into the game for his second goal of the year. That would be all of the offensive for the Red Wings in this one, however. Larkin, 23, is off to a great start with points in five of six games, totaling two goals and seven points. He also boasts a plus-5 rating. Larkin set career highs of 32 goals and 73 points in 2018-19 and saw his shooting percentage increase from 6.9 percent the previous year to a career-high 11.2. He's a must-own if he can continue to produce at those rates.

Larkin produced a secondary assist Tuesday in a 3-1 home loss to the Ducks.

EDGE Analysis

Despite Detroit's low score at Little Caesars Arena, Larkin still managed to pick up a point for the third straight game. He's cleared 20 minutes of ice time each time out, and the undisclosed injury that threatened to delay his season debut is a distant memory at this point.

Larkin fashioned two assists in Sunday's 4-3 home win over the Stars.

EDGE Analysis

Detroit's top line of Larkin, Tyler Bertuzzi and Anthony Mantha looks amazing in the early going, as the trio has combined for 16 points through two games. The 23-year-old will take aim at a third consecutive multi-point performance versus the visiting Ducks on Tuesday.

Larkin registered a goal and an assist in Saturday's season-opening road win over the Predators.

EDGE Analysis

Larkin sustained a preseason injury late in the offseason, but the young leader looked just fine, finishing with more ice time (22:10) than any other Detroit forward in this hard-fought battle against a competitive Predators squad. Due to the rapid development of top-line cohorts Anthony Mantha and Tyler Bertuzzi, this very well could be the year that Larkin puts up more points than games played.

Larkin (undisclosed) "feels great" and will play in Saturday's regular-season opener against Nashville, Dana Wakiji of the Red Wings' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Larkin's issue was always believed to be minor, but it's still nice to get confirmation that he'll be heading into the regular season feeling 100 percent healthy. The 23-year-old pivot, who set career highs in goals (32), points (73) and shots on goal (287) in 76 games last campaign, could easily surpass the 80-point threshold if he's able to avoid the injury bug in 2019-20.

Larkin (undisclosed) is not dealing with a serious injury, and it's a "definite possibility" that he'll suit up for Saturday's road opener against the Predators, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

This news came directly from head coach Jeff Blashill, who spoke about Larkin's injury on Detroit radio station 97.1 The Ticket. For those of you still in the process of assembling fantasy rosters for the 2019-20 campaign, there's no need to adjust the talented center's ranking based on this minor issue.

Larkin left Tuesday's practice after suffering an undisclosed injury, Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press reports.

EDGE Analysis

Luckily for fantasy owners, the Red Wings don't open the campaign until Saturday against Nashville, so as long as Larkin isn't dealing with anything major, he shouldn't miss any regular-season action. Another update on the 23-year-old American's condition will likely be released in the coming days.

Larin (undisclosed) notched two assists in Sunday's 3-2 overtime win over the Penguins.

EDGE Analysis

Larkin looked spry in his preseason debut. He logged 22:57 of ice time, which was tied for the most among Red Wings with rookie defenseman Moritz Seider, and the top-line pivot also managed to deliver an assist on the game-winning goal in overtime. Larkin warrants an early-round draft pick in fantasy pools.

Larkin (undisclosed) will play Sunday against the Penguins, Dana Wakiji of the Red Wings' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

This will mark Larkin's preseason debut, with the late start attributed to a minor injury. It's hard to believe, but the 23-year-old center is already heading into his fifth season in the NHL. Detroit relies on Larkin in all situations, and last season he came close to a point-per-game average with 32 goals and 41 assists through 76 contests.
