Detroit — Dylan Larkin’s recovery is apparently going faster than expected.
So fast, Larkin could be in the lineup Thursday when the Red Wings play Vegas at Little Caesars Arena.
Larkin strained an oblique muscle in overtime of Friday’s victory over Toronto. Originally expected to miss a week or two to recover, Larkin had a good off-ice workout Tuesday as the Red Wings returned to practice after two days off, and if all goes well Wednesday on the ice — Larkin is planning to practice — coach Jeff Blashill said Larkin would play against the Golden Knights.
