{"id":1512,"section":"sports","section_label":"Sports","url":"https://www.brokenews.co/sports/1512","headline":"Red Wings suspend Larkin without pay amid trade standoff","dek":"The 30-year-old former captain, who requested a trade in June, stopped playing as he waits nearly a month into the season for Detroit to move him.","body":"Dylan Larkin is no longer skating for the Red Wings, and now he is not getting paid for it either. Detroit has suspended the 30-year-old center without pay after he removed himself from the lineup while waiting for a trade he requested back in June.\n\nCoach Todd McLellan confirmed Larkin would sit out against the Blackhawks, with sources describing the move as \"trade-related.\" The sitting-out became a suspension shortly after, as the two sides remain stuck without a deal nearly a month into the season.\n\nLarkin's camp made clear this week that patience has run out. His agent, Pat Brisson, issued a statement explaining Larkin's decision to stop playing while a trade is sorted out, calling it the clearest public explanation yet from Larkin's side on why the former captain pulled himself from the lineup.\n\nWhere this goes next depends on whether Detroit can find a trade partner willing to meet its price for a player no longer interested in sticking around. Until then, Larkin remains in roster limbo, suspended and unpaid, as the situation with the Red Wings organization he once captained continues to unravel in public.","published_at":"2026-10-29T22:47:52.137548+00:00","source_count":4,"written_from":[{"outlet":"The Athletic","publisher":"The Athletic","title":"Red Wings' Dylan Larkin suspended without pay as he waits for trade","url":"https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7736677/2026/10/29/red-wings-dylan-larkin-suspension-trade/"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Dylan Larkin’s Agent Breaks Silence With Blunt Statement About Red Wings Trade Situation","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/dylan-larkin-agent-breaks-silence-191625855.html"},{"outlet":"ESPN","publisher":"ESPN","title":"Sources: Larkin won't play as Red Wings seek to trade ex-captain","url":"https://www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/id/50319798/sources-red-wings-play-dylan-larkin-trade-related-reasons"}],"more_coverage":[{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Dylan Larkin’s Trade List Has Three Real Contenders","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/dylan-larkin-trade-list-three-144500685.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Latest Dylan Larkin Report Fuels Speculation","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/latest-dylan-larkin-report-fuels-151937124.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Dylan Larkin Mystery Solved Following Red Wings Practice","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/dylan-larkin-mystery-solved-following-161742598.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Larkin Absence Today Was False Alarm","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/larkin-absence-today-false-alarm-221410517.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"New Dylan Larkin Report Raises Major Question About Two Interested Teams","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/dylan-larkin-report-raises-major-132134129.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Dylan Larkin not in Red Wings lineup;
