Dylan Larkin’s vacation plans survived, and he is the wiser for it.
With fan voting on the 2020 NHL All-Star Game closed, Larkin addressed comments he made that caused a stir in social media and hockey circles. In retrospect, Larkin would have said things differently than he did on Dec. 31, when he asked fans not to vote him to the Jan. 24-26 event in St. Louis because “I like the days off more.” The event conjoins with the winter break, giving players a week off.
“In the moment I said what I said but I really do regret that,” Larkin said Saturday.
