Rotowire
Larsson notched an assist and two hits in Thursday's 2-1 loss to the Golden Knights.
Larsson has a goal and five helpers over his last eight games, a span in which he's added a plus-7 rating and 16 blocked shots and nine hits. The defenseman is up to 28 points, 109 shots on net, 101 hits, 146 blocked shots and a plus-22 rating over 80 appearances. He's played at an acceptable level to be a depth option in fantasy, and Larsson has been one of few Kraken players to have a good season.

He's at 27 points -- second only to his career-high 33 from 2022-23 -- and he's added 104 shots on net, 97 hits, 138 blocked shots and a plus-22 rating over 77 appearances in 2024-25.

Kraken's Adam Larsson: Racks up three points in win
Rotowire
Larsson scored a goal on two shots, dished two assists, added five hits and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Blackhawks.
Larsson went into Tuesday's contest on a three-game point drought, but he had gotten on the scoresheet in seven of the nine games before the slump. The 32-year-old defenseman then made a huge impact in the comeback win, which saw him get the Kraken on the board late in the first period before setting up tallies by Matty Beniers and Shane Wright. Larsson is now at six goals, 16 helpers, 86 shots on net, 88 hits, 125 blocked shots and a plus-15 rating over 69 appearances.

Kraken's Adam Larsson: Tallies early in loss
Rotowire
Larsson scored a goal and added two PIM in Thursday's 5-3 loss to the Predators.
Larsson has scored in back-to-back games and has five points over his last seven contests. The 32-year-old defenseman can't keep up that pace for the rest of the season, and considering he's gone eight games without logging multiple hits, he's not doing enough physically to entice fantasy managers in deep formats. The blueliner has five goals, 17 points, 79 shots on net, 120 blocked shots, 78 hits and a plus-9 rating across 63 appearances.

Kraken's Adam Larsson: Deposits goal Tuesday
Rotowire
Larsson scored a goal in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Wild.
Larsson has four points and a plus-3 rating over his last six contests. The defenseman got the Kraken on the board at 16:40 of the first period. Larsson is up to four goals, matching his total from last season, and his 16 points put him two shy of his 2023-24 output. He's added 78 shots on net, 78 hits, 120 blocked shots and a plus-8 rating over 62 appearances. The Swede's drop in physicality is likely here to stay as he takes care of his body entering the later stages of his career, and he probably won't score enough to make up for it.

Kraken's Adam Larsson: Contributes assist in loss
Rotowire
Larsson notched an assist and two shots on goal in Tuesday's 7-2 loss to the Blues.
Larsson has a helper in three of his last four games, an unusually consistent stretch of offense for the shutdown defenseman. The 32-year-old is up to 15 points, 75 shots on net, 117 blocked shots, 78 hits and a plus-6 rating over 60 appearances this season. He's on pace to reach the 20-point mark for the third time in four years as a member of the Kraken, but his fantasy value mostly comes from his physical play.

Kraken's Adam Larsson: Puts up helper in overtime win
Rotowire
Larsson logged an assist and went plus-2 in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over the Flames.
Larsson had to pick up some slack in ice time, logging 26:37 after Brandon Montour (upper body) was hurt in the first period. The extra time helped Larsson end an eight-game point drought when he set up Shane Wright's tally to spark the Kraken's comeback. The 32-year-old Larsson is now at 13 points, 72 shots on net, 77 hits, 113 blocked shots and a plus-7 rating through 57 appearances. It's a similar pace to last season (18 points in 81 outings), though Larsson's physical play has taken a significant step back, reducing his fantasy utility.

Kraken's Adam Larsson: Two helpers in Tuesday's win
Rotowire
Larsson collected two assists in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Penguins.
Both helpers came in the third period as the Kraken rallied from a 2-1 deficit. It was Larsson's first multi-point performance since he erupted for three assists Dec. 5 against the Islanders. However, in between those efforts, the veteran blueliner managed just two points (one goal and one assist) in 17 contests with 32 blocked shots, 19 hits, 16 shots on net and a minus-6 rating.

Kraken's Adam Larsson: Finds twine Monday
Rotowire
Larsson scored a goal in Monday's 3-2 loss to the Devils.
Larsson didn't miss time after leaving Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Oilers in the second period with an upper-body injury. Instead, the 32-year-old blueliner found the back of the net for just the second time this season. He's up to eight points through 41 games in 2024-25. He should remain a top-two defenseman, but he hasn't been much of a factor in terms of fantasy outside of his physicality stats (55 hits, 83 blocked shots).

Kraken's Adam Larsson: Dealing with upper-body injury
Rotowire
Larsson is dealing with an upper-body injury sustained in Saturday's game versus the Oilers, and head coach Dan Bylsma said the team will "have to see how it reacts," Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle reports.
Larsson is questionable at best to play Monday versus the Devils. The Kraken seem likely to call up an extra blueliner from AHL Coachella Valley as insurance prior to that contest. Ryker Evans would likely pick up extra ice time to help cover Larsson's potential absence.

Kraken's Adam Larsson: Exits with injury
Rotowire
Larsson (undisclosed) will not finish Saturday's game versus the Oilers.
The nature of Larsson's injury was not revealed, but he was hurt late in the second period. If the 32-year-old defenseman is forced to miss time, the Kraken will likely need to make a roster move. Gustav Olofsson or Cale Fleury are usually the team's top options to summon from AHL Coachella Valley when there's an injury concern for the NHL defense corps.

Kraken's Adam Larsson: Produces helper Monday
Rotowire
Larsson logged an assist, three shots on goal, three hits and a plus-4 rating in Monday's 5-2 win over Utah.
Larsson ended a 10-game slump with this performance. The 32-year-old defenseman has maintained his usual spot on the top pairing this season, but the additions of Brandon Montour and Ryker Evans to the Kraken's blue line have resulted in Larsson getting fewer minutes. His ice time is down by more than two minutes from last year (22:57 per game in 2023-24, 20:49 this season). He's picked up seven points, 52 shots on net, 53 hits, 81 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating through 38 appearances.

Kraken's Adam Larsson: Stuck in scoring slump
Rotowire
Larsson was held off the scoresheet for the 16th straight game in Saturday's 2-1 loss to the Kings.
Larsson is a top-four defenseman who plays in a shutdown role, so it's not unusual for him to have long stretches without offense. This is a pretty bad slump even in that context, though he also opened last year on a 13-game drought and ended the 2023-24 campaign with no points over his last 20 outings. Overall, the 32-year-old has three points, 32 shots on net, 31 hits, 43 blocked shots, 15 PIM and a plus-2 rating over 21 contests this season.

Rotowire
Larsson posted an assist and five blocked shots in Thursday's 6-4 win over the Flyers.
