The Detroit Red Wings are facing a major setback with captain Dylan Larkin's future uncertain following reports that he's seeking a fresh start away from the team.
Larkin holds a full no-trade clause through next season, giving him complete control over any potential destination should a move be discussed.
He has a full no-trade clause for the next two years of his eight-year, $69.6 million contract, which runs through the 2030–31 season.
This means that any potential deal involving Larkin would require his approval, making a trade in the NHL rarely straightforward.
Larkin has spent his entire 11-year NHL career with the Red Wings, delivering a standout season with 34 goals and 33 assists across 74 games this year.
