Four-time Detroit Red Wings Stanley Cup champion Darren McCarty weighed in on the ongoing drama between the club and captain Dylan Larkin, who has requested a trade. 

"I automatically think about the guys who persevered, right? The guys in St. Louis, (Aleksander) Barkov in Florida," McCarty said via Woodward Sports. "That's a great example. Ovi (Alex Ovechkin). I don't understand. Obviously, he's got his reasons, but when you bring up the fact that they haven't talked in a year and there's contention and stuff like this, what do I always say? You're either in, or in the way. So you're definitely in the way."

Do you agree with McCarty?
