00:00There is something that's absolutely missing, and, yeah, Larkin's a name.
00:03For me, some of it is a 200-foot game.
00:07Like, there's some of that for Tage that, like, there's a moment every single night you watch him
00:12where if you're a real, like, if you're deeply entrenched in, like, if you're a hockey guy
00:17and you know, you know, these are the details that guys have to get right,
00:23there is something every night with him that's like, what are we doing here?
00:28Sure. And Larkin does not have that. Larkin is a 200-foot monster.
00:34He is a real, true centerman in the end.
00:38I don't know if he's a No. 1 center anymore, but if you've got Tage DeLarkin
00:43or if you've got, say, Kulik gets rolling or, you know, maybe Josh Norris shows a pulse for once
00:51and you get him going, like, that is a guy that can slot in in a very positive way for
00:56you.
00:56Where is Larkin, if I'm trying to draw a comp, how close am I?
01:02When I say acquiring Larkin would be like acquiring Chris Drury when the Sabres acquired Chris Drury,
01:08where I didn't look at him as the scoring guy, but I looked at him as a leader guy,
01:13200-foot game, leadership I just said.
01:16But, like, all of that, like, who's representing me out there?
01:19That guy.
01:19And I feel like Larkin is in that category.
01:21You can tell me why I'm wrong, but that's the name that comes to mind with the player you're describing.
