Legend Killer Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 16 goals and being a shutdown Dman beg to differ with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cs2016 Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 If he's a shutdown d-man, he can be the stay at home guy while Edler jumps up with the offense. And with that bomb of his, he could easily replicate what Salo brings to the PP and hopefully become another Erhoff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CB007 Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 I don't know if we have access to his goals distribution throughout last year. Other teams didn't know about his shot so they weren't paying him much attention. When you are playing against Campbell on the PK, you know who you should watch out for. I'm sure once teams became aware of FL's PP and his slapshot, his goals production dropped significantly. Sign him as a good defenseman, not necessarily as a PP specialist as well.

ButterBean Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 If people think Garrison's stats are boosted because of Campbell, just imagine him with the Sedins feeding him passes all day for that huge shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoosh Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 He had ONE good season in FLORIDA. Although I like him, I wouldn't throw a truck load of money at him. Please see Jokinen. Booth. Bouwmeester Ballard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yeria Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 3 years 10M deal. Anything more, it starts to get risky. Shouldn't consider if he wants more than 4M a year I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prngr44 Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 He's wanting 4 or 5 years at 4-5M. Pretty sure he's out of the Canuck budget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boudrias Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 Allen might be a safer bet. Less money and less duration. Could anchor Edler and SChultz could play the PP on the right side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VanGnome Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 I don't know much about Garrison, but from what I've read here it sounds like he'd be a great addition. He shouldn't be another "Ballard" because he plays on the right side, despite having a left-handed shot. He can take over Salo's position with Edler, allowing us to roll two very solid defence pairings. Looking at Garrison's stats he is a physical shot blocking machine and plays big minutes against big players in all situations. In a limited sample of 4 playoff games he had 3 points (1G, 2A), 12 hits, and averaged 25:11, all the while being their 2nd best penalty killer on defence (time-wise) and getting a good chunk of power play time. Aside from what you guys have said and deductions I can make from his statistics I have no idea how well he actually plays. Anyone with solid insight?

CRAZY_4_NAZZY Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 If your going to spend that kind of money, go after a player who has a better track record and stronger pedigree. 1 solid year doesn't have me sold on signing Garrison to a lucrative deal, and this team already has bad enough contracts with Ballard, Luongo, Booth strangely all ex-panthers. lets not make Garrison another mistake...

ButterBean Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 why would the sedins be feeding it to the defense? Edler and Salo could've done the same thing in that case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jammyrft Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Not sure I want Garrison for anywhere near Hamhuis, Bieksa, Ballard money. It would be great to land him as a good depth player. But I think I wouldn't go to much over 3m/yr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
