What happened: Dylan Larkin reportedly expanded his trade list to 10 teams last week, per PuckPedia. The cap-space question across that group is now the focus.

Why it matters: A longer list widens the field of possible Larkin trade destinations, but only teams with enough cap room can absorb his salary without sending money back. That makes cap flexibility the practical filter on which of the 10 can actually deal.

What to watch: Watch for any club on the list clearing cap space or opening trade talks.
