Red Wings Star Larkin Eyes 10 Trade Destinations
21 Oct
Summary
- Dylan Larkin has expanded his trade destination list to 10 teams.
- He was removed as captain after requesting a trade post-2026 season.
- Larkin has one goal and four assists in the Red Wings' first seven games.
Detroit Red Wings star Dylan Larkin has reportedly increased his list of preferred trade destinations to a total of 10 teams. This move comes after Larkin was stripped of his captaincy following his trade request at the conclusion of the 2025-26 season, a year that marked Detroit's tenth consecutive playoff absence.
Larkin, currently in the fourth year of an eight-year, $69.6 million contract, possesses a no-trade clause that remains active through the upcoming season. Initial reports indicated a smaller list of desired teams, but this has since grown significantly, including recent additions of the Carolina Hurricanes, New Jersey Devils, and the Utah Mammoth.
The process of trading Larkin has faced complications with the recent change in management, as Steve Yzerman stepped down as general manager, with Shawn Horcoff now serving as interim GM. These efforts to facilitate a trade have thus far been unsuccessful. Larkin, 30, has recorded one goal and four assists in the Red Wings' first seven games of the current season.
