Adam Larsson Fantasy Stats

Seattle Kraken defenseman Adam Larsson (upper body) will play against New Jersey on Monday. An upper-body injury limited Larsson to 12 minutes in his last appearance against Edmonton, but he has shaken off the ailment ahead of Monday. Larsson offers minimal fantasy value on the offensive end but racks up peripheral stats at a good rate. In 40 outings, he has recorded seven points (one goal, six assists), 52 shots, 83 blocks, and 55 hits. The Swedish blue-liner will take his usual spot on the first defensive pairing next to Vince Dunn.

Seattle Kraken defenseman Adam Larsson has inked a four-year, $21 million extension. The 31-year-old has spent three campaigns with the Kraken, registering 76 points (20 goals, 56 assists) in 245 games with 464 blocks and 567 hits. Larsson had a down year offensively last term with an 18-point effort but ranked second on the team with 151 blocks and was fourth with 162 hits. With the team looking stronger than last year, Larsson should be able to boost his offensive numbers in 2024-25. He's locked into a spot on the top defensive pairing, playing next to Vince Dunn.

Seattle Kraken defenseman Adam Larsson appears ready to join the lineup for Wednesday's matchup against Philadelphia. His status for the game had been up in the air after he cleared COVID-19 protocols, but the Swedish blue-liner has joined the team for warmups. Larsson is a key piece for Seattle with his defensive prowess and ability to eat up huge minutes. He's been averaging a team-high 22:05 of ice time for the season, recording 78 hits and 65 blocks in 30 games with eight points.

Seattle Kraken defenseman Adam Larsson normally blocks a good number of shots and plays a steady brand of defense. On Friday night, Larsson scored midway into the first period to give Seattle a 2-1 lead at the time. The defenseman had two shots on goal, two hits, and five blocked shots on Friday in 21:48 of ice time. The Swedish defender is now up to two goals and five assists in 24 games. He is currently around the pace for his career-high of 24 points set way back during his fourth season in New Jersey.

The Edmonton Oilers suffered a big loss on Wednesday when the Seattle Kraken nabbed veteran defenseman Adam Larsson during the 2021 NHL Expansion Draft. The new club then signed the pending unrestricted free agent to a four-year, $16 million contract. The 28-year-old is a reliable, stay-at-home defender who doled out 166 hits and blocked 128 shots in 2020-21. He scored five goals and recorded 10 total points in 56 games. Larsson has averaged more than 20 minutes played per game during his career and should be a Top 4 defenseman for the Kraken while helping cut down on the number of shots getting through to new goalie Chris Driedger. Larsson is a strong fantasy option in leagues that reward hits and blocked shots.
