Oilers linked to Dylan Larkin trade in Matthew Savoie-led blockbuster

The Edmonton Oilers have been linked to a hypothetical trade for Detroit Red Wings center Dylan Larkin, with a proposed package built around Matthew Savoie. The idea, posted through PuckGM, would send Savoie, Josh Samanski, Beau Akey and Edmonton’s 2028 third-round pick to Detroit for Larkin. It comes at a complicated moment for the Red Wings, who are dealing with Larkin’s trade request but have also made it clear they are not planning a rebuild. Larkin’s contract and full no-trade clause add another layer to a deal that looks far easier to construct on paper than it would be to complete.Could Matthew Savoie-led package be enough for Dylan Larkin?Savoie is the obvious centerpiece of the proposal. The 22-year-old winger was selected ninth overall by Buffalo in 2022 before joining Edmonton in the 2024 Ryan McLeod trade.
