The Detroit Red Wings and San Jose Sharks have held extensive discussions regarding defenseman Simon Edvinsson, according to a report by Nestor Quixtan published on October 29, 2026.
The talks come amid speculation about a potential blockbuster trade that would send both Edvinsson and Red Wings captain Dylan Larkin to the New Jersey Devils, though no deal has been finalized.
Edvinsson, a highly regarded young defenseman, has been the subject of trade interest as the Red Wings explore roster changes. The Sharks are reportedly seeking to add defensive depth.
Any trade involving Larkin, the team's longtime captain, would represent a major shift for Detroit. The Devils have been linked as a possible destination in trade proposals.
