Although it is often said that hockey is just a business, there are always opposing views, particularly in the case of trades that happen out of the blue.�

Tyler Bertuzzi, a lifelong Red Wing, was traded to the Boston Bruins this week by the Detroit Red Wings in exchange for a 2024 first-round pick and a 2025 fourth-round pick. Seven years in Detroit have allowed Bertuzzi to develop strong ties with his teammates, whom he refers to as brothers.
The Red Wings captain Dylan Larkin, who was good friends with forward Tyler Bertuzzi and just dealt with his departure, has been greatly impacted by this.
Larkin was unable to control his emotions when asked about the deal, and they all came out:
Larkin received an 8-year deal for $69 million and change, but considering that it really does demonstrate that money isn't everything all the time, it is difficult to comprehend how he is now feeling.
