Larsson has played every game this season, but was absent from practice due to an illness. It's unclear if he will be ready to play in Thursday's game against the Nashville Predators. The 33-year-old defenseman is averaging 21:48 time-on-ice and has eight points (2G / 6A) in 37 games.
Larsson exited Seattle's previous game due to an undisclosed injury after only playing 12:03 time-on-ice but will return to action on Monday against his former club, the New Jersey Devils. The 32-year-old Larson has been a stabilizing force on Seattle's blue line this season, averaging 20:38 time-on-ice and recording seven points (1G / 6A), 83 blocks, and 55 hits in 40 games.
Adam Larsson will continue to patrol Seattle's blueline for four more seasons after the towering defensemen signed a four-year, $21 million contract extension ($5,250,000 AAV) on Tuesday. The 31-year-old is entering his 14th NHL season and fourth with Seattle after putting up four goals, 18 points, a +6 plus/minus and 55 PIMs in 81 games in 2023-24.
Larsson did not play in Seattle's last game for personal reasons but will be back in the lineup on Tuesday. The 31-year-old Larsson has 18 points (4G / 14A), 119 shots, 149 hits, and 143 blocks in 75 games this season.
Larsson will not play on Friday against the Anaheim Ducks due to personal reasons. The 31-year-old Larsson has 18 points (4G / 14A), 119 shots, 149 hits, and 143 blocks in 75 games this season.
Larsson was forced to leave Monday's game with an illness and did not return. Without a morning skate, there's no indication whether or not Larsson will be available for Tuesday's game, so consider him a game-time decision.
Larsson was a UFA but was selected by the Kraken in the Expansion Draft and promptly signed to a four-year deal with a $4.0M AAV cap-hit. In his five seasons with the Oilers, Larsson averaged four goals, 13 assists, 256 hits and 159 blocked shots per 82 games. He doesn't bring a lot of offence to the Kraken but will be a steady part of their top-4 in their first year.
Larsson has been out since the season opener but is expected to play in Los Angeles. Larsson will replace Matt Benning and skate with Kris Russell on the Oilers' third pair.
Larsson took a Quinn Hughes slapshot off his right leg on Wednesday and landed on LTIR this afternoon. The original timetable puts Larsson out until at least mid-November. Evan Bouchard or Joel Persson are expected to replace Larsson on Saturday.
The movement to LTIR means that Larsson will miss at least 24 days but his timeline should become more clear when the Oilers disclose what his injury is. Larsson took a Quinn Hughes shot off of his foot in Wednesday’s win and it could be related to that. For a corresponding move, the Oilers sent Ethan Bear to Bakersfield (AHL) and recalled Evan Bouchard.
Larsson has missed the last two games to be at his father’s funeral and will sit for a third straight game despite being back on the ice for Monday’s morning skate. Larsson will draw back into the lineup on Thursday.
Larsson was back in the lineup for the last seven games but will return to Sweden for his father’s funeral and will be replaced by Ethan Bear tonight vs. the Predators. Larsson could be back in the lineup next Monday vs. the Coyotes.
Larsson hasn’t played since January 23rd. He has six points in 40 games for the Oilers this season. After practice head coach Todd McLellan said there is no timetable for Larsson’s return.
