Rasmussen (undisclosed) took full part in Monday's morning skate after leaving Saturday's contest with an injury.

Rasmussen scored two points (1G / 1A) before exiting Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Vegas Golden Knights with an undisclosed injury. He could be an option to return to the Red Wings' next game on Tuesday against the Buffalo Sabres as he was a full participant in practice on Monday.

Gibson will start on Friday vs. Dallas.

Gibson has served as the backup for the last three games but will return to the crease on Friday night. The veteran netminder saved four of 28 shots (.857 SV%) in his last outing, a 6-4 victory over the San Jose Sharks, and has been exceptional in his career against the Dallas Stars, posting an excellent 2.66 GAA and .920 SV% in 17 games (5-8-3). The Ducks enter action as +275 home underdogs against the Stars.

The Red Wings have acquired Radim Simek and a 2024 seventh-round pick from the Sharks for Klim Kostin.

Simek has been an NHL regular with the San Jose Sharks since the 2018-19 season but has spent the entirety of the 2023-24 campaign in the AHL. In 40 games with the San Jose Barracuda, he has 16 points (4G / 12A) and 29 penalty minutes.

Talbot will start against the Senators on Thursday.

After a miserable two-month stretch for Talbot, he appears to have returned to form and will tend the twine for the fifth straight game on Thursday. Talbot was excellent in a 2-1 losing effort in overtime against the Vancouver Canucks on Tuesday, saving 29 of 31 shots (.935 SV%). The Kings enter action as -191 home favourites against an Ottawa Senators club that was defeated 2-1 by the Anaheim Ducks last night.

Talbot will start against the Canucks on Tuesday.

After a rough two-month stretch, Talbot has seemingly re-emerged as the go-to guy between the pipes for the Kings and will start for the third straight game. Talbot has won four of his last five starts, allowing fewer than two goals four times and posting a stellar .955 SV%. The Kings enter action with even -105 odds at home in a divisional matchup against the Vancouver Canucks.

Gibson (illness) returned to Anaheim's practice on Tuesday after missing last game.

Alex Stalock was returned to San Diego (AHL) on Tuesday as John Gibson returned to practice after missing the Ducks' game on Sunday due to illness. The 30-year-old veteran netminder is a name to watch as the trade deadline comes around on Friday but will look to improve his overall stock and build on his 13-20-2 record, 3.15 GAA and .898 SV%.

Larkin (lower body) is out for approximately two-weeks after leaving Saturday's contest early.

Larkin has been excellent for the Red Wings this season but will miss approximately two weeks due to a lower-body injury, a devasting blow for a team amid a playoff race. Larkin leads the Red Wings with 54 points (26G / 28A) in 55 games while averaging 3.0 shots per night. J.T. Compher will likely be the center iceman seeing the greatest increase in deployment during Larkin's absence.

Gibson will start in San Jose on Thursday.

Gibson will be back between the pipes on Thursday after getting the tail-end of their back-to-back off on Sunday. Gibson was fantastic in his last start, allowing just two goals on 50 shots before eventually falling to the Kings in a shootout. It was easily one of the best starts of the season for Gibson, despite not securing the victory. He and the Ducks draw a very rare, favourable matchup on Thursday, as they find themselves as -130 favourites to pick up the win in San Jose.

John Gibson
Talbot will start in Vancouver on Thursday.

Talbot will be back between the pipes for the Kings for the second straight game on Thursday as he tries to wrestle back control of the starting job from David Rittich. Talbot took the loss in Calgary on Tuesday, allowing three goals on 36 shots in the 4-2 defeat. Despite the result, it was another promising start for Talbot, who's snapped out of his prolonged cold streak with a .949 SV% over his last three contests. He draws a difficult matchup on Thursday with the Kings being +125 underdogs in Vancouver.

Talbot led the Kings onto the ice for warmups.

With Los Angeles on the second half of a Western Canada back-to-back, Cam Talbot will take the crease on Tuesday in Calgary after backing up with the night off Monday. The 36-year-old was one of the NHL's best goaltenders in the first half of the season but has had a nightmarish run since the turn of the new year which has affected his overall numbers. He still owns an impressive 16-13-5 record, 2.53 GAA and .913 SV% on the season regardless. He takes on the surprisingly surging Calgary Flames, who have won three straight games and are improving offensively as they rank 16th in the NHL in goals per game (3.12).
