Dylan Larkin's contract demands have been made public and its staggering

The Detroit Red Wings have had Dylan Larkin as their captain for almost two years now. He is a favourite of the supporters and one of the team's finest players.

The Red Wings are dedicated to signing him for the maximum amount of time since, at 26 years old, he will still be able to have an effect for at least ten years.

But GM Steve Yzerman might find the AAV a little much. According to reports, Larkin wants to sign a new contract worth $9 million annually. Despite the fact that he is a fantastic player, this would place him among the league's best paid athletes.

As he accomplished in Tampa Bay, Yzerman is renowned for developing a core through cost-effective agreements. His strategies must have been effective because the Lightning have advanced to three consecutive cup finals.

Do you believe the management will give Larkin this contract or replace their hometown captain with someone else?
