The Free Press’s Helene St. James reports that disgruntled Red Wings captain Dylan Larkin still wants to be traded to the Vegas Golden Knights, Florida Panthers or Minnesota Wild:
In two-plus months since requesting trade from Red Wings, Dylan Larkin has not expanded his list (he has no-trade clause) from Florida, Minnesota, Vegas. No offers from those teams have intrigued Wings. They want value-now players for a 1C with very favorable contract.

The Red Wings must hold out for the best possible deal they can acquire for Larkin, but if this drags into September–which it very well might–I don’t see him showing up for training camp.
Enjoy the LCA press box, Larkin. You may be watching a lot of hockey from there this Fall.
I hope Yzerman sticks to his guns and makes this fool sit all season. I’ve never disliked a Wings player as much as this crybaby who clearly wants to strong arm the organization into trading him to Minnesota.
