Last year, Dylan Larkin showcased his offensive prowess, leading the Detroit Red Wings with a well-rounded 70 points. However, dig a little deeper, and you’ll see the potential for even more.
Larkin is the engine that drives the Red Wings’ offense, playing top-line minutes and, crucially, quarterbacking a power play unit that has the potential to be truly lethal in 2025-2026.
Why Larkin is Primed for a Point Surge
Think about it: Larkin will be flanked by the dynamic duo of Lucas Raymond and the veteran savvy of Patrick Kane. Add in the offensive instincts of Alex DeBrincat and the booming shot and playmaking ability of defenseman Moritz Seider on the man advantage, and you have a recipe for power-play dominance. Larkin is the distributor, the key playmaker in the middle of it all. He’s got the speed to create separation, the vision to find open teammates, and a more than capable shot himself.
My personal insight, gleaned from years of watching this league and analyzing player trends, tells me Larkin is entering his prime. He’s the undisputed leader of this Red Wings team, a player who carries a tremendous amount of responsibility and thrives under pressure. The added offensive firepower around him will not only create more scoring opportunities for Larkin but also draw defensive attention away from him, opening up lanes and increasing his chances of finding the back of the net.
My official projection for Dylan Larkin in the 2025-2026 NHL season: 35 goals and 45 assists for a grand total of 80 points. This isn’t just a hopeful guess; it’s a calculated prediction based on his role, his linemates, and the overall trajectory of this Detroit Red Wings team. Don’t be surprised if he even flirts with the 85-point mark if the power play truly clicks as I expect it to. Draft him accordingly; he’s going to be a fantasy stud.
