Wild Playing Long Game on Dylan Larkin, Patience Wearing Thin

Minnesota remains locked in a waiting game with Detroit over star center Dylan Larkin, and the Wild's front office is making it clear they're not going anywhere. The organization believes there's still time for a deal to materialize, but every day that passes without resolution adds another layer of complexity to their offseason plans. With the draft in the books and free agency looming, the Wild's ability to make their next big swing could hinge entirely on whether Larkin becomes available.
