As we go further into the 2026-27 season, the question remains: Will the Detroit Red Wings<\/a> trade Dylan Larkin?<\/p>\n

Larkin\u2019s name has been in headlines since June, when he was first asked for a trade from the only team he\u2019s ever known. At first, he only asked to go to three teams \u2013 the Vegas Golden Knights<\/a>, Florida Panthers<\/a> and Minnesota Wild<\/a>. He has since expanded that list to 8-9 teams. Yet, a trade has yet to be made, leading many to believe the former captain might have to expand his list of preferred destinations even more to make it happen, or else he\u2019ll have to continue to play in Detroit.<\/p>\n

On Wednesday\u2019s edition of Daily Faceoff LIVE,<\/a> David Pagnotta joined Tyler Yaremchuk and Carter Hutton to discuss how Larkin\u2019s trade destinations might be holding the Red Wings back from getting a deal done.<\/p>\n

David Pagnotta:\u00a0You\u2019re not freeing up the $8.7 million [cap hit] anyway, but the eight, nine, 10 places that he\u2019s willing to go to, they don\u2019t have cap space. So, it still goes to what I\u2019ve been saying \u2013 You\u2019ve got to create the package for Larkin that\u2019s attractive enough for Detroit to do it, and then you\u2019ve got to figure out how the hell you make the money work. It\u2019s a complicated situation unless he expands his list even more. If he says yes, and him and his family say yes to Montreal, I mean I have it on pretty good standing that he\u2019ll be a Hab a few hours later. They are ready to pull the trigger on a move for Larkin. It\u2019s just up to him and his family as to whether or not they want to go to Montreal, and, so far, the answer is still no. <\/p>\n

Does that change with other teams? Capitals don\u2019t have cap space. Colorado doesn\u2019t have cap space. Minnesota doesn\u2019t, etc. You kind of have to wait things out, and I can\u2019t imagine he wants to play out the season in Detroit. He wants this to be done sooner than later. The only way to do that is \u2013 you got to expand that list even more if you want something relatively immediate. Otherwise, you\u2019re waiting and you\u2019re trying to see how creative Horcoff can get with being a Billy Guerin in Minnesota or somebody else somewhere else. Until you do that, you\u2019re going to be playing the waiting game.<\/p>\n
