Dylan Larkin’s Trade Demand Comes With a $41K Daily Price Tag
Larkin is playing an expensive waiting game, holding out for a trade.
Dylan Larkin, a center for the Detroit Red Wings, has demanded a trade from the team, with his $8 million annual salary seeing a $41,237 daily deduction until a resolution is reached. Larkin's agent, Pat Brisson, informed the team that the player would no longer attend practices or games. This situation marks a culmination of a conflict that has been ongoing since the summer, when Larkin initially requested to be moved, listing Florida, Minnesota, and Vegas as his top contenders.
Despite Larkin showing up for preseason camp and subsequent games, tensions escalated, leading to his suspension without pay. The player's agent and the Red Wings front office continue negotiations, but the likelihood of a resolution appears slim, with fans expressing their disapproval of Larkin's actions by donning his jersey with the nameplate covered in "Quitter."
