Pipe dream or not, and however much I rate Larkin, that's a huge overpay for a rental because if the Avs can't afford Horvat then they sure as hell won't be able to afford Larkin......and that's if a Michigan boy who's played for the Wings and supported them as a kid during the rivalry could stomach being an Avalanche player lol.

wild overpay on a rental Larkin and underpay for Ghost who leads all UFA dmen in pretty much all metrics this year

Larkin isn't available

Detroit declines, That trash offer doesn't even get Larkin as a rental. Olausson is hot trash and we don't need a smallish LD in Girard Yzerman would laugh at this offer for his Captain.
