These are some brutal offers. Larkin has been PPG over the past 3 seasons, scoring 30 goals in each of them. And that’s on some really not good teams. We are talking blue chip prospect, another high end prospect, good roster player, a first and then probably some other pick or prospect too. Otherwise there is ZERO incentive for the red wings to trade him. This is a trade you make to really get your team over the hump and if it wins you a chip it’s worth losing that much, and you’d really need to sell it to Detroit. He’s signed on a good deal for 8 years. Sometimes I really think a lot of the people on this site don’t watch the NHL.
