Seravalli: Really decent chance Conor Garland is traded today

[TropicOfNoReturn]

Jim Rutherford is an idiot

He's not the Canucks GM

So the Canucks trade a high first for Garland and sign him to a cap-friendly multi-year deal, and now he’s on the block in season 1 after playing well? I’m very confused?

Different management group made the OEL/Garland trade.

The Canucks need to recoup picks and prospects, because they have none. Garland is a very good even-strength player and is on a reasonable contract - which makes him one of their only trade chips of any substantial value.

Marino+Kapanen for Garland+Schenn checks the boxes roster-wise, but it seems like that's skewed toward the Canucks in terms of value, unless everyone has REALLY soured on Kapanen.

As a Canucks fan I'm not at all interested in Kapanen, based on his play relative to his cap hit.

+1. If Pittsburgh doesn't qualify him and he wants to sign a little cheaper on a show-me deal, I'd be into that, but he's not worth his qualifying offer at the moment.

 

[Man Bear Pig]

Dubas was linked to Garland before IIRC. certainly his type of player. The asking price has to be high, it's not like he's lost value. Don't know why Vancouver would move on from him after one season and on a reasonable contract.

Kapanen's qualifying offer is $800k

I'd do Kapanen, Joseph and a 1st for Garland and a 3rd. Any more and I'd pass. Marino is a definite no-go.

He said similar about Chychrun

Cmon Seravalli

3 rings how many do you got

Oh and he’s not even the GM btw

I think Marino is only in play for Boeser. Marino in a Garland trade is too iffy.

That Debrusk extension seemed odd. He's from western Canada and Garland is from near Boston and they make close to the the same amount. Possible swap?

That's a straight-up downgrade so I have no idea why the Canucks would want to do that.

If you add a 1st and a solid prospect maybe..Garland is significantly better than Debrusk lol

 

[Hansen]

Garland is not a player who should be traded by our team

Very effective, under utilized, good contract. We dont get out of a bad cap situation by moving out our good deals to retain or sign bad ones

Sure, there can be an add by BOS. The two players would be the basis of the trade.

Garland may be "significantly better", but assuming the rumor is true why would VC be dealing Garland so soon after trading for him and extending him? Makes one wonder, no?

Why would we move Garland for a worse winger?

It would be a mistake to trade Garland at all. The only reason he is even getting considered to be moved is to clear cap or trade it for a RHD.

He probably has a lot of say in hockey personnel decisions, though. It’s not like they hired him as a figure head while a rookie is running things by himself.

After 2 months still waiting on the big moves that we keep hearing about with all these rumours

New management wants to make their own changes. Put their stamp on the team and remove Bennings in some ways. Garland is the wrong move, but still a move. They also want cap flexibility July 1st.

I watch all the Canucks games and Garland has long contract and hardly worth his salary

You’re right, he’s actually worth more

He may have, he isn’t the GM so it doesn’t matter if he did or not

Garland is more valuable than Boeser. I would have gladly done Marino for Boeser.

There’s about a zero percent chance.
