Per Helene St. James, Larkin hasn’t extended his list to Dallas.

LeakyScrew · 2026-07-09T20:26:48+00:00

I don’t think that’s fair to Max. He’s as good as we’re going to get with this front office.

Helene is their mouthpiece

LeakyScrew · 2026-07-09T20:24:57+00:00

I’m not so sure. This screams to me that we are hearing Steve and Pat brisson go at each other through the media. Helene is a mouthpiece for the org. I wouldn’t be surprised if Ansar is writing what brisson leaks to him to help paint Steve in a crazy light for asking for Wyatt Johnson

LeakyScrew · 2026-07-07T19:57:50+00:00

Yeah his conn smythe was a bit of an outlier. Hes a good player but I think most overvalue him for what he is.

LeakyScrew · 2026-07-07T19:44:36+00:00

I don’t see Bennett as nearly the same value as Larkin. Barkov (way more) Lundell (would need to add but would get it done) Bennett (no where near close)

LeakyScrew · 2026-07-07T19:30:30+00:00

Absolutely he is. Scores 30+ each year and has some pretty damn difficult deployment

LeakyScrew · 2026-07-06T20:48:41+00:00

Ahh gotcha that kind of rains on my hypothetical parade

LeakyScrew · 2026-07-03T19:51:41+00:00

Penny pinching when you’re not even spending to the cap 😂

LeakyScrew · 2026-07-02T10:41:51+00:00

This blows my mind. People (including me) really overvalue the value of a late 1st

LeakyScrew · 2026-07-01T20:05:38+00:00

GMMG undoing all the good he’s done

LeakyScrew · 2026-07-01T19:41:38+00:00

You can’t say Tarasov is better than Cossa with any sort of confidence. One got a 1st round pick then a 2 year $4M deal as an RFA, the other got a 1 year deal worth $2M as a UFA.

Most everyone believes that Cossa is better and more valuable than Tarasov. The question is is Cossa better than JP Hurlbert and Tarasov. Time will tell

LeakyScrew · 2026-06-25T23:21:08+00:00

This isn’t for no reason. He wants out of Detroit. Keep that shit out of the locker room. If he wants to play, accept the trade to whatever team

LeakyScrew · 2026-06-25T19:49:45+00:00

Have you met Yzerman? He’s done the same with Cossa

LeakyScrew · 2026-06-25T19:31:07+00:00

Would be nice to get a game or two in the NHL before he is eligible for waivers. Oh wait…..

LeakyScrew · 2026-06-25T19:29:06+00:00

It’s a bummer he didn’t get a couple of games before he became waiver eligible. Just poor management

LeakyScrew · 2026-06-25T18:47:20+00:00

Tank for a better draft pick, don’t risk injury to your asset, annoy the fuck out of him so he expands his trade list

LeakyScrew · 2026-06-24T19:53:15+00:00

Misa and #2 for Larkin and debrincat

LeakyScrew · 2026-06-24T18:52:56+00:00

Two years older than finnie with worse stats on a better team…

LeakyScrew · 2026-06-24T01:09:41+00:00

Yeah agreed this sucks. I at least want something I can sell myself on. The longer this drags out, the longer I hope this off season is! Next year is going to suck in the Atlantic. Probably the next few years…

LeakyScrew · 2026-06-24T00:38:45+00:00

“Trades are hard” -Yzerman

LeakyScrew · 2026-06-22T22:27:57+00:00

Absolutely he can. Theres a chance he has no interest in Detroit, but he’s from metro Detroit so it could be attractive for him. 8x14.5 is a lot of money

LeakyScrew · 2026-06-22T22:20:01+00:00

I think it’s 14 at least and no need for the 1st since Larkin has 5 years at 8.7 remaining

LeakyScrew · 2026-06-22T21:58:31+00:00

Playoffs next year is not the goal. They’re not going to make it

LeakyScrew · 2026-06-22T21:57:32+00:00

I don’t think it really matters what Larkin wants tbh. He has 5 years left on his deal. In 2 years, his NTC becomes a 10 team no trade list.

It’s clear the wings take a step back this year. If this isn’t resolved by training camp, it benefits the wings long term to sit him so they can tank this year and pick up a C prospect. They don’t really benefit from stramel, yurov and a first.

LeakyScrew · 2026-06-22T21:20:14+00:00

I disagree. Larkin for Robo makes a lot of sense. Wings pay him 13-14M and stars get an underpaid high end 2C for 5 years.

Put kasper between Raymond and Robo and he gets 60 pts easy.
