Detroit Red Wings Captain Breaks Down Into Tears After Finding Out His Best Friend Had Been Traded
Although it is sometimes stated that hockey is merely a business, there are always other viewpoints, especially in the instance of trades that occur unexpectedly.
It happened this week when the Detroit Red Wings sent Tyler Bertuzzi, a lifetime Red Wing, to the Boston Bruins in return for a�2024 first-round selection and a 2025 fourth-round pick. Bertuzzi has lived in Detroit for seven years and has formed close bonds with the teammates that surround him, whom he refers to as brothers.
This has had a significant impact on Dylan Larkin, the Red Wings captain, who was close friends with forward Tyler Bertuzzi and just dealt with his departure.�When Larkin was questioned about the deal, he was unable to contain his feelings and they all came out:
Even though Larkin signed an 8-year contract for $69 million and change, it is difficult to understand how he is currently feeling since it truly does show that money isn't everything all the time.
