Summary

The Detroit Red Wings are considering a trade proposal that would exchange captain Dylan Larkin for Washington Capitals center Pierre-Luc Dubois in a four-player deal. The proposal includes Dubois, forward Andrew Cristall, defenseman Justin Holl, and a 2027 third-round pick going to Detroit. Larkin, who has requested a trade, has a full no-trade clause and has named multiple teams, including Washington, as potential destinations.
