Capitals' Johan Larsson: Dealt to Washington
Larsson (lower body) was traded by the Coyotes to the Capitals on Monday in exchange for a 2023 third-round draft pick, Sportsnet's Chris Johnston reports.
The 29-year-old has been remarkably consistent in his career thus far, finishing with somewhere between 11-17 points in seven consecutive seasons. Larsson actually has 15 points in just 29 games this year, so if he can get back on the ice sooner rather than later, he should easily set a new career high.

Larsson (lower body) underwent a sports hernia surgery Thursday, Arizona Coyotes Insider Craig Morgan reports.

Coyotes' Johan Larsson: Finds twine Friday
Larsson scored a goal, blocked two shots and added two PIM in Friday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Avalanche.
Larsson pulled the Coyotes even with the Avalanche at 2-2 with his second-period tally. The 29-year-old has seven points in his last seven games, though he had a hat trick and a three-assist game to go with four pointless efforts in that span. The Swede is up to four goals, eight assists, 23 shots on net, 28 PIM, 43 hits and a minus-2 rating through 23 contests. His skill as a defensive center will likely keep him in a top-six role, though he's also on pace for a career-best year on offense.

Coyotes' Johan Larsson: Nets first career hat trick
Larsson recorded a hat trick and two PIM in Thursday's 6-4 win over the Blackhawks.
Larsson tallied at even strength in the first period, then added a power-play goal and an empty-netter in the third to complete his first hat trick. Impressively, those were his first three goals of the season. The Swede has three goals and three assists in his last three games, though that's a rather unusual run of success for him. Larsson is a defensive-minded forward, but playing in a top-six role for the Coyotes could help his scoring numbers. He's at 11 points, 18 shots on net, 39 hits, 22 PIM and a minus-1 rating through 20 appearances.

Coyotes' Johan Larsson: Dishes three helpers in wild loss
Larsson racked up three assists -- one on the power play -- in Tuesday's 8-7 shootout loss to San Jose.
Arizona's offense ranks last in goals per game, but the Coyotes were firing on all cylinders offensively in this one. Unfortunately for Larsson, the Sharks were able to match that productivity. The career bottom-six forward is getting an opportunity to play up the lineup due to the Coyotes' lack of talent down the middle, but Larsson's still searching for his first goal of the season. He has eight assists in 18 games.

Coyotes' Johan Larsson: Will be active Friday
Larsson (lower body) will be activated from injured reserve to rejoin the lineup Friday versus the Ducks, Arizona Coyotes Insider Craig Morgan reports.

Larsson may be eased back into action in a bottom-six role at first, but as one of the more defensive forwards on the the roster, he'll likely log big minutes once he's back up to speed.

Larsson will miss his third straight game Friday and is expecting to miss roughly another week, so this move won't affect his timeline to return. The 29-year-old has five assists while averaging 17:27 of ice time through 16 games this season.
