Dylan Larkin trade request from Detroit Red Wings
Overview
Dylan Larkin, the former captain of the Detroit Red Wings, has requested a trade from the franchise, resulting in him being stripped of his captaincy. As of late October 2026, the 30-year-old center remains central to NHL trade speculation. While Larkin holds a no-trade clause through the next two years, reports indicate his contract may limit trade options to teams within the United States.
Larkin has expanded his trade list to approximately ten US-based teams. According to NHL insider Elliotte Friedman, the list includes the Colorado Avalanche, Dallas Stars, Tampa Bay Lightning, Washington Capitals, Vegas Golden Knights, Minnesota Wild, Florida Panthers, Utah Mammoth, New Jersey Devils, and Carolina Hurricanes. The Minnesota Wild remain a preferred destination, though speculation has emerged that defenseman Quinn Hughes may be waiting for the Wild to acquire Larkin before signing his own contract extension.
Despite vocal support from Montreal Canadiens fans, who have chanted ‘We want Larkin’ at the Bell Centre, the center has notably excluded Montreal from his preferred destinations. However, trade speculation has intensified regarding the Buffalo Sabres and the Canadiens. While neither team is currently on Larkin’s approved list, Montreal GM Kent Hughes is reportedly monitoring the situation closely. Some analysts suggest a deal could only materialize if Detroit management presents a package favorable enough to convince Larkin to add the Canadiens to his list.
Despite the ongoing uncertainty, Larkin continues to play for Detroit, recently recording five points in eight contests.
