A matter of when, and not if, for Dylan Larkin
Red Wings Prospects: ESPN’s Emily Kaplan on the Dylan Larkin situation.
“Told it’s really quiet. No momentum for a trade right now. That said, I get the sense the relationship between Larkin and the Red Wings is at such a place it’s just a matter of when, not if.”
…
“Every trade they’re looking at for both of these guys, they’re asking for NHL-caliber players in return, not futures.”
Dylan Larkin isn’t expanding his list to include the Montreal Canadiens
TSN: Pierre LeBrun said that as of yesterday, Dylan Larkin hasn’t expanded his trade list, and his list doesn’t include the Montreal Canadiens.
“And I can tell you that I checked on this day to see if there was perhaps a little change of heart from Dylan Larkin as far as adding a new team to his list, i.e. Montreal. No, his list has not changed despite the love-in from Saturday night. It is at 10 teams, which has expanded from the beginning, but does not include Montreal at this point.”
The Canadiens have been trying to make a big trade – Matthew Knies and Kirill Marchenko. They’d like to talk to the Red Wings about him, but they can be patient with Michael Hage coming at the end of the year. Would Larkin have a change of heart about the Canadiens if he’s still with the Red Wings in three months?
NHL Rumors: Montreal Canadiens, Philadelphia Flyers, and the Toronto Maple Leafs
The New York Rangers are checking some goaltenders but aren’t rushing anything
TSN: The New York Rangers are making some calls to teams about veteran goalies with limited term left on their deals, according to Darren Dreger, and they’re not in any rush.
“But again, they’re not panicking in this situation. Dylan Garand will get a great opportunity here to run with the ball. They’ve got Joonas Korpisalo, who’s still a few weeks away from being able to return. So if this strong start goes off the rails in the near future, maybe the appetite for that urgency changes for Chris Drury and the Rangers.”
