Summary
Dylan Larkin’s trade request sent Detroit’s offseason plan into chaos, forcing a bold rebuild focused on five-on-five scoring, center depth, defensive toughness, and bottom-six firepower. In a major shake-up, Larkin heads to Anaheim for McTavish, McQueen, Solberg, and a future pick, while Cossa heads to Utah for Hayton and a new contract. J.T. Compher is also dealt for future assets. Free agency brings in Dorofeyev for scoring, Schwartz for grit, Kane on a one-year deal, and Ingram to anchor the net. McTavish slots into the top six, while McQueen and Solberg are long-term pieces. The bottom six gets a serious upgrade with Schwartz and a revitalized Kasper. This aggressive overhaul could turn the Red Wings into a playoff contender in a brutal division — if it works.
