imo if were targeting larkin for a top6 pivot wed better be ready to give up some heavy assets tbh our d is still a work in progress man
@Kings17, your point about targeting Larkin for a pivot and considering D assets still in flux makes sense, but have you looked at Detroit's cap situation? They've got over $30M freed up after the Cossa trade, which could be a game-changer for their bargaining power.

i think you're selling larkin short man, he's a top-6 pivot who can make a big difference on our roster honestly @fenwickfan said it best though, gotta be realistic about the cap hit
