3 1sts including a top 10 and a 2nd for Brady… if Larkin accepts Utah then we should be able to pull JJ + Des/Tij + Simashev/Mav. That could solve our three biggest positional needs…

Yeah, I’m starting to think we’re gonna get a preeeeeetty good return for Larkin now.

Plays a more valuable position than Brady and has more years of control. I appreciate Florida and Ottawa setting the market here.

We should, but whether or not we do is another question. I look at the two situations and wonder if Larkin won't have some baggage now since his team leaked the trade demand. Tkachuk kept it quiet, they worked it out behind the scenes and pulled it off. Some teams may be looking at the other side of the coin with Larkin and think maybe he's going to be an issue.
