Short Or Long Term Deal For Dylan Larkin?

from Luke Fox of Sportsnet,

Training camp is roughly a month away, and Dylan Larkin — Detroit’s best and most important player — still does not have a job in place for the 2018-19 season.

“Something’s coming,” Larkin promised Tuesday afternoon, following an intense skills-training session alongside Connor McDavid and other NHLers at the Power Edge Pro camp in Toronto.

“I’ve told everyone I think it’ll be before training camp. It’s right there. I’m just waiting to iron out the details.”///

GM Ken Holland would prefer to lock Larkin up for the next five or six seasons, but he’s under a significant salary-cap crunch.
