• Kraken's Adam Larsson: Stuck in scoring slump

  24D ago • By RotoWire

  Larsson was held off the scoresheet for the 16th straight game in Saturday's 2-1 loss to the Kings. Larsson is a top-four defenseman who plays in a shutdown role, so it's not unusual for him to have long stretches without offense. This is a pretty bad slump even in that context, though he also opened last year on a 13-game drought and ended the 2023-24 campaign with no points over his last 20 outings. Overall, the 32-year-old has three points, 32 shots on net, 31 hits, 43 blocked shots, 15 PIM and a plus-2 rating over 21 contests this season.

  Larsson signed a four-year, $21 million contract with the Kraken on Tuesday. Larsson was rewarded with a raise ahead of the 2024-25 season, and the 31-year-old is tied into Seattle for the next five years. The right-shot defenseman has missed just one game over the last three years, an incredible feat of durability and consistency. Larsson will continue to be a stay-at-home defenseman in a top four that features offensive blueliners Brandon Montour and Vince Dunn. Larsson should open the season on the top defensive pairing.
