Larkin Trade? Oilers Have Bigger Issues
Description
Dylan Larkin’s trade request from Detroit stirs Oilers interest—but it’s a costly, risky move. Edmonton might need a second-line center, but Draisaitl already excels at the role, and Larkin’s $8.7M salary through 2029 is steep for a team with bigger priorities. Trading for him likely demands a first-round pick—a luxury they can’t afford after already losing one this year. Plus, Larkin may prefer other markets, and Edmonton’s Cup chances remain uncertain. The allure of McDavid, Draisaitl, and Larkin is tempting, but the price tag, contract, and team context make this a questionable fit.
