Paul-walker Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Garland is pretty good. He fits our mold. He’s an aggregator. He is aggressive and causes the other team to have a penalty against him(us). Fits our cap 4.5 for medium type player. Has good enough points for playing on the third line most nights and 2nd pp. I say we keep him. what do u think?

48MPHSlapShot Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 We have a glut of young RW's with top 9 potential that are going to be pushing for spots in the next couple of years. Podkolzin, Kratsov, Klimovich, Karlsson, Lekkerimaki, not to mention Brock and Mikheyev. Something's gotta give. I think finding new homes for both Garland and Boeser is the right path forward for the team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

higgyfan Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 2 minutes ago, Crabcakes said: Aggregator? Like a kind of website? Agitator, I think. Conor draws a lot of penalties (if the PP were any good, it would be a big +) and he is an energy guy. He's good at fetching the puck and keeping it in the Ozone. At this point, I would prefer to keep Gar over Boeser. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rest can fight over 4th line minutes to start. And I do like pods on the 3rd line. Give him 2nd pp minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best to shed the salary and get the younger guys some ice time. They won't all pan out, but I imagine a couple of them will, and by opening up spots on the roster we'll be giving them the opportunity to do so, not to mention we'll be shedding salary and getting more picks/prospects in return.

Phil_314 Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 Depends what's offered on the market. If the right asset is available in return then I hope we go for it and trade him; if not then we can keep him, he's serviceable (32 points in 56 games) and not really all that expensive.
