Detroit Red Wings star and captain Dylan Larkin shared some devastating news via Instagram on Friday morning.
"This week my wife and I said goodbye to our baby. It's hard to find words or positivity in this, but we greatly appreciate your support and understanding, and thank you for respecting our privacy."
Larkin, 27, has recorded 21 points on eight goals and 13 assists in 20 games so far this season, and has found chemistry with newly-acquired forward Alex Debrincat.
Our thoughts and condolences are with the Larkin family at this time.
