Minnesota Wild, Dylan Larkin Trade Could Be “Imminent”

A trade sending Detroit Red Wings center Dylan Larkin to the Minnesota Wild could reportedly happen soon. Insiders including Michael Russo of The Athletic and ESPN's John Buccigross indicate a deal may be nearing completion following recent discussions between the clubs. Larkin has recorded five points in seven games this season as Detroit struggles near the bottom of the Atlantic Division.

According to reporting from The Athletic, Larkin has approved a permanent trade list featuring 10 teams, which includes Minnesota alongside contenders like the Florida Panthers, Vegas Golden Knights, and Dallas Stars. Detroit executives have reportedly scouted recent Wild games, with Minnesota center Danila Yurov mentioned as a potential piece of trade compensation.
