Do you think Jason Garrison will beat Adrian Aucoin's record for most goals as a Canuck Defenseman? (23g)

[-AJ-]

Anyone think Garrison has the potential to replace Ehrhoff and put up 50 points?

[-AJ-]

coulda swore bieksa had 23 goals not to long ago.. no?

[-AJ-]

Garrison is a defensive d man with a slapper.

Ehrhoff is a well rounded offensive d man.

Garrison with Campbell -good.Garrison with Bieksa? Not so good.

this thread simply ISN'T about production. it's about goal scoring. i made no comment about garrison's production and made no insinuation that he disappeared down the stretch. i addressed the thread subject, which is goal scoring. plain and simple.

also, neither higgins nor hamhuis had career years statistically as canucks.

[Dirt Nasty]

Henrik is a much better playmaker and passer then Campbell or anyone on florida. So I think if AV uses Garrison on the first line PP, having henrik out there setting him up on the blue line; he could very well hit 15+ goals, so anythings possible!

[5minutesinthebox]

Solely, no. Largely, yes.

Case in point: top-3 offensive SHPs amongst players who played > 30 games, 2011-12:

1: Mathieu Perrault

2: Curtis Glencross

3: Travis Moen

Not exactly the league's showcase snipers, are they?

If he hits double digits again i will be happy , I think he had a career yr last season and will get 7-10 goals next season

[ccc44]

I find this funny since its coming from the guy who said Kesler sucks.

i'll eat a fistful of my own pubes if garrison gets 20 goals.

The whole "Campbell inflated his stats" idea is hilarious. So apparently Campbell just has these magical d-to-d passes that can't be replicated on this team?

Are you guys kidding? The Twins and Eddie can pas just as well.

The whole point, really, is that 16 goals will be hard to replicate no matter what, even if he was playing with Campbell.

While it's not entirely impossible for it to happen, it will depend a lot on how much powerplay time Garrison gets. It's not unfathomable that he will score many goals, but hitting 23 goals is a bit of a stretch for anybody.

Garrison of course has a chance to do it, but realistically he most likely won't.

what if lou ends up in CBJ and we get aucoin back, could he break his own record?

He went from playing with Brian Campbell to playing with the Sedins, if he gets a shot on the top powerplay then he has a chance, rush the net and ready that one timer feed from the Sedins and he is golden.

[Jägermeister]

I'll be pleasantly surprised if he gets to 15.

I'm expecting like 10 goals and 30 points.

[Nucks-4-Life]

Let's just hope he doesn't suck like Ballard.

[rkoshack]

Not a chance. He won't even repeat the 16 goals he got last year. Let's get something straight. Garrison has got a hard shot and is fairly good offensively but not as much as people like to think. The Canucks didn't sign him because he scored 16 goals last year. His defensive game and ability to shutdown opposing teams top players is what really caught their attention. I bring this up because I dont want idiotic CDC members going nuts during the season when he's not on pace for more than 10 goals
