Dylan Larkin a Game-Time Decision for Red Wings’ Tuesday Game Against Senators

A return would bolster Detroit’s playoff push after a 3-2-1 run without its top center.

Overview

Head coach Todd McLellan said Larkin is improving and will be evaluated at puck drop Tuesday, per reporter Logan Reever.
Larkin has missed seven straight games after a right leg injury suffered March 6 against Florida.
The captain has 55 points in 63 games this season, reflecting his outsized impact on Detroit’s top line.
Detroit is 38-24-8 and enters a demanding stretch that includes Boston, Ottawa, Buffalo, Philadelphia, and Pittsburgh.
Elsewhere in the Atlantic, Ottawa expects Jake Sanderson back by late March or early April, and Toronto recently sat Morgan Rielly with a re-aggravated lower-body issue.
