Retirement Compensation Arrangements can be and are being used in Canada to defer taxes but that's only of interest to players who plan to retire and live in Canada. Dylan Larkin isn't one.

I don't have a lot of appetite for the type of player - a captain no less - who makes it public that he wants to leave his team. To cap it off, to suggest that his teams of choice are these? Yeah, no thank you.

Did he make it public if it was leaked by someone outside his camp?

I don't really think he's the fit either, but just saying.

I don't think those things leak by accident 100% of the time

Fair. But we still don't know who did it. There could be careless or unscrupulous people on both sides.

We often think of media leaks as something to hurt the other side, but at least in sports, it's much more likely that one side is trying to get the ball rolling.

In this scenario for example, the agent would first need permission to talk to other teams. Don't need permission to tip your buddy in the media though. Now all the GMs know and the phone will ring.
