Predicting What Will Happen To Red Wings' Larkin And More Unresolved NHL Off-Season Cases

The Detroit Red Wings face several unresolved NHL off-season situations heading into the 2026-27 season, most critically the need to hire a new General Manager before addressing other pressing matters. Captain Dylan Larkin has submitted a trade request, while restricted free agent Simon Edvinsson still needs a new contract signed. Other NHL RFAs such as Adam Fantilli also remain unsigned, with speculation continuing as the season's start approaches for a Red Wings franchise that has missed the playoffs for 10 consecutive seasons.
