Larkin (upper body) is considered day-to-day ahead of Friday's season opener versus the Rangers, Michael Whitaker of The Hockey News reports.

Larkin has reached the 30-goal mark in each of the previous five seasons and should be capable of hitting that threshold again in 2026-27, assuming he isn't sidelined for too long. Once given the all-clear, Larkin should reclaim his spot on the first line.
