A rumor is not confirmed news. We sum it up in our own words and update it when it is confirmed or denied.
Rumor
Dylan Larkin ·
Detroit Red Wings ·
Carolina Hurricanes ·
New Jersey Devils ·
Montreal Canadiens ·
Minnesota Wild
It's official. The Red Wings have suspended Dylan Larkin without pay, just as Darren Dreger floated. Frank Seravalli shared the statement, also reported by Elliotte Friedman, Pierre LeBrun, Chris Johnston, Sportsnet, RDS and TVA Sports.
Chris Johnston points out the suspension can really sting if a trade drags on. Larkin forfeits $41,237.11 for every day he's suspended.
Elliotte Friedman confirms it too. The Red Wings have announced Dylan Larkin is suspended without pay.
RDS is reporting it as well. The Red Wings have suspended Dylan Larkin without pay.
PuckPedia notes a player suspended without pay carries no cap charge. Detroit now projects about $24M in cap space, which keeps plenty of flexibility for a trade.
Pierre LeBrun calls Carolina, New Jersey and Washington intriguing options, and says Montreal and Boston would love to get in. But Larkin's 10 team list hasn't changed, something TSN repeated on Insider Trading.
Pierre LeBrun keeps coming back to Minnesota on Larkin. He says the Wild have been very aggressive and keep pushing.
Red Wings interim GM Shawn Horcoff, quoted by Daily Faceoff, says his phone rang a lot on Thursday as he gets ready to trade Larkin.
