Detroit Red Wings' Dylan Larkin waiting to see 'right specialist' for upper-body injury

ST. PAUL, Minn. — The Detroit Red Wings are moving forward without Dylan Larkin while awaiting word on just how much time he will miss.

Coach Derek Lalonde said prior to Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Wild at Xcel Energy Center that Larkin "saw a specialist, but we don't know anything today. It was just [a matter of seeing] the right specials. The doctor from last night moved him onto a specialist, so we'll go from there."

Lalonde confirmed the injury stems from when Larkin was hit by a puck in the right hand during Tuesday's 1-0 loss to the Carolina Hurricanes.
