The Red Wings’ choice on a Dylan Larkin deal is already difficult, and the most recent rumors surrounding the Minnesota Wild are making it much worse.
Interim general manager Shawn Horcoff has to decide whether Detroit can afford to reject such a possibility, as there is a potential package on the table that includes a promising young forward and three first-round draft picks.
Elliotte Friedman, an NHL insider, thinks Minnesota’s prospective offer consists of three first-round selections and Danila Yurov, according to a November 10 report from Detroit Hockey Insider. Friedman, however, had previously expressed doubt regarding the number of picks involved, and neither organization had verified those precise words.
That’s a lot of potential future talent for a Red Wings team that’s desperate to establish a long-term winner. Is it enough to warrant trading one of Detroit’s finest players, though?
Massive Return for Dylan Larkin is Possible for the Red Wings
Minnesota has frequently emerged as one of the most proactive clubs chasing Larkin, and the rumored trade possibilities have continued to garner NHL-wide attention. While Detroit is committed to getting an acceptable return, the Wild appear interested in adding an established center who can improve their lineup.
