Detroit Red Wings captain Dylan Larkin has reached a breaking point with the organization, according to his agent. The revelation came Thursday in a report by Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press, citing the player's representative as saying Larkin "has had enough" of the current situation with the NHL franchise.
Larkin, a Michigan native who has spent his entire career with Detroit since being drafted 15th overall in 2014, serves as the team's captain. The 29-year-old center signed an eight-year, $69.6 million contract extension in 2023 that runs through the 2030-31 season.
Details regarding the specific nature of the dissatisfaction were not immediately disclosed. The Red Wings have missed the playoffs in each of the past eight seasons, the longest active drought in the NHL.
