Red Wings' Daniil Tarasov: Strong showing in Monday's exhibition game
Rotowire
Tarasov stopped all 15 shots he faced during Monday's 1-0 preseason shootout loss to the Blue Jackets.
Even though it was an exhibition game, it was a good start to Tarasov's Red Wings tenure. The 27-year-old netminder signed a one-year, $2 million contract with Detroit on the opening day of free agency in July, but he will need to fend off the up-and-coming Trey Augustine for the backup gig to John Gibson throughout the remainder of training camp.

Red Wings' Dylan Larkin: Will report to camp
Rotowire
Larkin will take part in the Red Wings' training camp but will no longer serve as the team captain, the club announced Friday.
Larkin had previously requested a trade, leading to speculation that he may not show up for training camp, though it appears those concerns were unfounded. Handling the center's request will no doubt be a daunting issue for whoever takes over as Detroit's general manager. While the ongoing situation could certainly be a distraction, Larkin still offers enough fantasy upside to take him sooner rather than later in drafts.

Red Wings' Sutter Muzzatti: Traded, signed Thursday
Rotowire
Muzzatti was acquired by Detroit from Nashville on Thursday in exchange for future considerations. The Red Wings also signed him to a two-year, entry-level contract.

Red Wings' Dylan Larkin: Could ultimately remain in Detroit
Rotowire
Larkin could ultimately remain in Detroit for the start of the 2026-27 season, Michael Whitaker of The Hockey News reports Wednesday.
Larkin's trade request that was made public in June generated plenty of buzz during the offseason, but the Red Wings haven't yet a trade partner. He submitted a short list of teams that he would like Detroit to trade him to, a list that was believed to include Florida, Minnesota and Vegas. While the 30-year-old has presumably garnered ample interest on the trade market, the Red Wings may ultimately elect to keep him in the fold if they don't receive an offer they feel is suitable. The Red Wings are also searching for a new general manager after Steve Yzerman stepped down in July and will be playing without Patrick Kane in 2026-27 after he returned to Chicago during the offseason, both of which could complicate potential trade talks as the regular season approaches.
