Popular Post Junkyard Dog Posted January 30, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 30, 2022 (edited) Not surprised teams are interested. I doubt we trade him. He's cost controlled and if we are taking a step back he still fits our age group afterwards. For me it would literally have to be a Miller-like return.

Popular Post Smashian Kassian Posted January 30, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 30, 2022 Man trading him already would suck. If they trade Miller AND Garland we are really setting ourselves back a number of years in regards to being competitive. 1 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if the teams are trying to test the waters and seeing if they can take advantage of a new GM Patrik Allvin. It's a good thing that Jim Rutherford is there to support. 4 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a bit more has to be done even if we trade Miller but at that point you could try to trade some of the higher cap-hit role/support players if you can.

Alflives Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Garland for a similar aged top pair right shot D to play with The Huggable One would work. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris12345 Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 I like it. Love that JR will change it up. They need cap space and d sounds like they are looking at everything. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Literally a Miller-like return personally. He's cost controlled for four more seasons after this and just entering his prime. Heart and soul type of guy. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Provost Posted January 30, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 30, 2022 (edited) Ya, I am sure it is happening… but it would have to be a big overpayment. He is literally what we would want in return for a trade. Young, fast, skilled, and relentless… good at both ends of the rink. He is signed to a really nice value contract all through his prime and it has no downside years on the back end to make us leery of a drop off. He is a piece we add to and not remove. We aren’t going into a full rebuild, we are swapping out a few players to try to be better in the short and long term. If it was a pure hockey trade, then maybe. Say if Miller was returning a bunch of forwards and futures… swapping Garland for Carlo could make sense as an example. A similar level cost controlled young player. I don’t want to lose our angry little elf! Edited January 30, 2022 by Provost 2 1 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garland's a guy I'd prefer to keep, I like him for the reasons others are huge fans of Miller. Different player, but he plays with similar drive, particularly for a smaller player. Having a guy like Garland on the team is part of why I'm comfortable with Miller going. And as you said, his age fits if they see themselves a few years out.

stawns Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 It does appear they could be going full rebuild, but it's more like full re-tool. Rebuilding teams aim for draft picks, the Canucks would be aiming for young roster players and almost ready prospects who will be able to step in next year. However, I think Garland fits the former definition so it seems like a lateral move unless the return is something you can't turn down. He'd be a great piece for a team like the Hurricanes though.

No reason for us to trade him for anything but that. If we decide to part from Miller and we take a minor short step back, Garland will still be here by the time when we move forward as a veteran piece and leader on the team.

King Heffy Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Good young piece on a cost-controlled contract. I'd listen to offers on any of our players, but I'd need a hell of an overpayment to move him if it was my call. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
