Golden Knights Linked To Dylan Larkin, But Vegas Should Run From Detroit's Asking Price

Vegas Golden Knights may have interest in acquiring Detroit Red Wings captain Dylan Larkin, but the asking price appears to be a deal-breaker. Detroit is reportedly seeking a first-line center in return, which would make it difficult for Vegas to move its own top option, Jack Eichel. Eichel recently signed an eight-year, $108 million contract extension that runs through the 2033-34 season, and the article says he’s central to Vegas’s championship window. Other teams mentioned as discussing Larkin include the Florida Panthers, Minnesota Wild, and Dallas Stars, but the piece notes similar reluctance, pointing to players like Aleksander Barkov and Wyatt Johnston as untouchable. The article also touches on Minnesota’s potential fit with Kirill Kaprizov.
