Detroit Red Wings captain Dylan Larkin and fellow forward Andrew Copp will be sidelined at least two weeks due to their respective leg injuries, head coach Todd McLellan announced Thursday.

Larkin has been idle since Detroit's 3-1 loss to the Florida Panthers on Friday in which he recorded an assist on 17:28 of ice time. The United States Olympian was seen holding his knee after falling awkwardly in the third period.

Copp was hurt after Tomas Nosek fell on his left leg during the second period of the Red Wings' 4-3 loss to the Panthers on Tuesday.

Larkin, 29, has 55 points (28 goals, 27 assists) in 63 games this season.

Copp, 31, has 37 points (eight goals, 29 assists) in 65 games in 2025-26.
