Larkin may adjust 10-team trade list as Red Wings standoff continues

What Happened

Detroit Red Wings centre Dylan Larkin remains out of the lineup while pursuing a trade, and his 10-team trade list could change soon. According to Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman, the list may be altered within the next 24 to 48 hours. Larkin was suspended without pay and removed from the roster after telling the club he would no longer play for it. He has two goals and six points in 10 games this season.

Key Details

  • Larkin has a 10-team trade list he is willing to waive his no-movement clause for.
  • Friedman said the list could be altered within 24 to 48 hours.
  • The current list includes Florida, Minnesota, Vegas, Dallas, Washington, Carolina, Utah, Tampa Bay, New Jersey and Colorado.
  • Larkin initially requested a trade to only Florida, Minnesota and Vegas.
  • Friedman said trades to Florida, Vegas or Colorado are hard to see happening, if not impossible.
  • Detroit suspended Larkin without pay and took him off the roster after he said he would not play.

What It Means

Larkin's willingness to adjust his trade list could widen the field of teams Detroit can negotiate with, but the clubs he originally preferred may be difficult to complete a deal with. His standoff with the Red Wings continues while he remains off the roster.

What's Next

The next 24 to 48 hours could bring a revised trade list from Larkin, according to Friedman, as Detroit continues to seek a deal.
