Dylan Larkin Booed on Opening Night

Clip credit u/daKrut

Context: Dylan Larkin was the captain of the Detroit Red Wings and requested a trade, while having a no-trade clause, and originally limited the team to 3 options to where he would agree to be traded to. He has since been stripped of the captaincy and has largely turned the entire fanbase against him. Had he not made such an unreasonable request for a trade, he would likely have not faced such harsh backlash.

Yeah, nothing will get me to hate Larks. Dude gave his body up for an organization that refused to get him help, he has every right to want to go to a winner since the Wings obviously have no interest in that.

I mean, if I got paid $8.7M on a contract with a no-trade clause, I'd just suck it up and do the best I could do on ANY team. He deserves to be booed.
