Detroit Red Wings captain Dylan Larkin would reportedly consider joining three specific NHL franchises if traded, according to Monday reporting from the Detroit Free Press.
The veteran forward would reportedly agree to waive his complete no-trade clause for potential deals with the Florida Panthers, Minnesota Wild, or Vegas Golden Knights, the report indicates.
The 29-year-old Michigan native has played his complete 11-season NHL tenure with Detroit. The Red Wings organization, though, has struggled through a decade-long absence from postseason play. Larkin’s playoff experience includes just five games after the 2015-16 campaign, where he netted a single goal.
Representatives for Larkin and Red Wings management have not issued public statements regarding continuing speculation about the captain’s potential departure.
This season, Larkin achieved personal bests with 34 goals and added 33 assists across 74 contests.
His current eight-year deal worth $69.6 million has two seasons left, running until the conclusion of the 2030-31 campaign.
The gold medal winner from the 2026 United States Olympic squad in Italy has accumulated 643 career points through 276 goals and 367 assists over 808 NHL games since Detroit selected him 15th overall in the 2014 NHL Draft.
