Going to be hard for Larkin, as a pure rental to a top club, to get a prospect as good as Raty, and as high a first, and a player (Beau) who is better than Larkin, like Beau is better than Bo. Agree, we definitely found a good trade and fit for our club. The deal makes a lot of sense for us. It does sound like Larkin wants to test free agency so that could diminish the return for sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mll Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 (edited) Since when re Larkin? He's from Michigan and has always said he wants to stay there. Friedman in his 32 Thoughts: Dylan Larkin had a good line about what fellow All-Stars were saying to him in Florida: “Guys are asking why it hasn’t got done yet, stuff like that.” That tells you what you need to know, that his peers believe Larkin when he says he wants to be a Red Wing.

I did not see that. Interesting. Everything is speculation. And what I had read and heard before the All Star break was they were having troubles re signing him and Steve Y playing his usual hardball tactics. So there is a lot of questions marks whether they get a deal done in time or not. I agree he is a home town kid and they have a leg up on retaining him, but that's pretty gutsy for a rebuilding team to just let him walk to free agency with no contract. That's a big risk. Who knows tho, maybe he does the rare trade to a contender then sign back with his home town team again?? Crazier things have happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indication is that he also really wants to stay given where the team is at and his role on it as captain and C1. They are starting to have quite a bit of talent and nearing the opening of a long window. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have good young pieces so I can definitely see him staying. He’s having a hell of a year. Wonder what that will cost them?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Attila Umbrus Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 Sorry I forgot which thread we are in. Back to wishing Toews best of luck or worst of luck healing from long covid. Sucks no matter which way you spin it whether he deserves it or not. He has a family and they are suffering to I would imagine. Wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Heffy Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 9 minutes ago, ktcy2 said: I mean… no body knows what goes on behind the scenes Well considering all the things that were said to Beach, it's reasonable some of them were within earshot of Captain Clown. Additionally, he publicly supported Bowman after the report was made public. Why would anyone respect this gutless coward? 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sneakystink Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 (edited) To me, it sounds like a poor excuse for his poor play but hey, I could be wrong. This guy is washed up and doesn't want to be "exposed" for being way over paid. I'd be surprised if he ends up signing another contract for even half of what he is getting now.

You always like to see guys go out on their own terms. And I don't even care for Toews. All things considered I'd be a little surprised if he wound up playing for another NHL team at this point. I don't envy anyone having to live with this kind of ordeal. Not only is it a career killer, but it would affect home life as well. We certainly could've used Sutter's defensive prowess on the ice and his veteran presence in the locker room these past couple of seasons. I don't get the negative comments on Toews. D-bag? Jerk?

Kind of ironic he made those “expose them for what they really are” quotes after the Beach incident. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
