LeBrun mentioned that Pat Brisson, Larkin&#8217;s agent, and the Wings have gotten some movement. However, these talks have been going on for months and Detroit hasn&#8217;t signed its captain.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">INSIDER TRADING: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/TSNHockey?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#TSNHockey<\/a> Insiders discuss\u2026<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; NHLPA leadership search<br \/>&#8211; Anderson not in play unless Habs forced to reconsider<br \/>&#8211; Larkin, agent meeting this weekend<br \/>&#8211; VGK reassessing with Mar. 3 looming<br \/>&#8211; Why Nyquist is unique deadline piece<\/p>\n<p>ICYMI \ud83c\udf0d: <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/MKwAxvvU7A\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/t.co\/MKwAxvvU7A<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/tXmgqfoIde\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/tXmgqfoIde<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; TSN Hockey (@TSNHockey) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TSNHockey\/status\/1621487745460838401?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">February 3, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Larkin has been the leader in goals and assists for the Red Wings this season.

He has a full no-movement clause and would have to approve any trade if the Wings do decide to go that route. General manager <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/y\/yzermst01.html?utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=lastwordonsports.com&amp;utm_campaign=2023-02-04_hr\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Steve Yzerman<\/a> wants to know the future for one of his main pieces by the time the March 3 deadline rolls around.<\/p>\n<p>Larkin is a vital cog in the Red Wings future, and they&#8217;ll want to do everything to keep him. Detroit has a lot of promise, but losing out on Larkin would be a big blow to that if they don&#8217;t get a good return.<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"EjMhzJtCT49-JbaKptWPMQ\" class=\"gie-single\" style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/1246774060\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'EjMhzJtCT49-JbaKptWPMQ',sig:'atNFxBHZWpaygCMpdcfuhX_q2AxtMLnnq-2Ykl7bZO8=',w:'594px',h:'396px',items:'1246774060',caption: true ,tld:'com',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s time for another bunch of NHL rumours for your Saturday.
