Larkin vs Teravainen

[buddha71]

Who do you like here? I am a Larkin owner, but I am rapidly losing patience. The Wings are terrible, and it doesn't appear that it will change soon.

I might be able to swing a Larkin for Teravainen deal. TT has had his own struggles this year, but I feel owning any Detroit guys is going to be detrimental.

What do you think?

Thanks!

I like TT here but not when there is talk of a concussion and no sign of coming back.

But you're right. Red Wings are wasted space right now. I would move him for anyone in and around TT's level.

Thanks for the reply hockeyrobot. I realize TT is out. Not necessarily thinking for immediate use. My pool is a 20 keeper dynasty, so Larkin still has value there, but he has really regressed since that 73 point season in 18-19. He had a rebound to finish last season, but now seems to have regressed back even further. I don't know what's going on in Detroit. They seem to be stubbornly hanging on the Blashill, eventhough, clearly things are not progressing there.

Frustrated owner of 3 Detroit players.

Thanks again!

I feel your pain, I traded for mantha and Larkin a few years back before they went off, but now I sit. Added hronek last year and watching the wings put up donuts tears me apart inside. I have a good team, but was ok to use this year to let the team mature. Are they eventually going to get past this funk (next year) or have they bottomed out and already set their career highs. Someone give me hope.

Thanks for the support! Looks like there will be a Geek of the Week article on Larkin next week. Very much looking forward to it.
