Dylan Larkin requests trade from Detroit Red Wings

sportsJun 4, 202628174

Dylan Larkin, 29, requested a trade from the Detroit Red Wings, Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman reported. Larkin has been Detroit's captain and top center for 11 seasons and has made just one playoff appearance with the club. As a long-time Michigan native and core forward, his exit would allow Detroit to pursue draft picks, younger players or salary-cap relief and could reshape the roster around Lucas Raymond and Moritz Seider. Trading the captain would significantly alter Detroit's leadership and could fetch a sizable return for a proven top-six center.

Absolutely speechless. Instantly becomes the top player on the trade market and absolutely changes the Red Wings' offseason plan. Good thing I wasn't going to start writing my "If I Were Steve Yzerman" until this weekend

It seems like McLellan and Yzerman have consistently questioned the leadership in the room. Maybe moving him out is the culture change the team needs. let this be Mo and Raymond’s team.

This is the best thing for the Red Wings. Gives them all kinds of options with getting younger, acquiring draft assets, properly aligns the timeline around Raymond and Seider. Mo gets the C now.

I wonder if he'd be interested in playing with a demigod?

Yzerplan taking too long. Seeing Habs, Sabres and Sens ahead with other teams like Florida being healthy next season he isn’t sold.

I’ve always thought he was a really good player… but if Yzerman is a “not trading you inside my division” type, I wouldn’t get too excited. His old buddy Verbeek has Macintosh who wants out too… maybe there’s a swap coming who knows.

He never was an elite player & doesn't have much left in the tank. This from a lifelong Wings fan.

It's a big blow but Detroit Red Wings fans can remain calm knowing that they have Justin Faulk.

Dylan Larkin requests trade from Detroit after Red Wings miss playoffs for 10th straight season. Could he be a fit for the Washington Capitals?

Per Elliotte Friedman, Dylan Larkin has requested a trade away from the Detroit Red Wings… ⛽️->🔥 That’s another top C to throw into the rumor mill (Thomas, Hischier, Pettersson) #NHL.

Red Wings trading Larkin actually would make a fair bit of sense in terms of the return they could get and how the roster is set up, but it’s also #NotGreatBob when the captain requests a trade.

Red Wings are unlikely to want Larkin in division and American players wanting to come to Montreal isn't exactly commonplace

Dylan Larkin wants out of Detroit? Yes, the Red Wings really are that bad of an organization under Yzerman that the local kid/team captain wants to leave. www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/article/...

🚨Larkin Trade Request - Will Habs Be Suitors?🚨 Dylan Larkin requests a trade, and would fit in nicely on the Canadiens. Will they pursue him, and if so, what's the cost? I profile a big winger who the Habs may pursue at the upcoming draft. 7:35 ET! youtube.com/live/LMa5cM7...

Red Wings trading Dylan Larkin to the FBI for a player to be named and cash considerations…Larkin gets to fulfill his lifelong dream of daily bro beers with Kash Patel and MAGA.
