Confirmed Trade: [VAN/ARI] Ekman-Larsson (12% ret.), Garland for Beagle, Roussel, Eriksson, 9th OA, '22 2nd, '23 7th

[Lays]

My guess is Holtby/Schmidt+9th+Roussel for OEL+Garland

 

[Love]

The entire win/lose factor on this trade for Vancouver solely comes down to if and how much salary is retained on OEL.

 

[Seatoo]

Oh man, Benning is going to absolutely screw this up, OEL with no retention has little-to-no value and Garland doesn't excite me that much

 

[GJB]

Cap-wise this is a disaster for the Canucks....

 

[Gargyn]

Deal is done apparently. Just waiting on it being approved by the league.

 

[ICanMotteBelieveIt]

2 of; Holtby, Eriksson, Roussel & Beagle + 9th OA for OEL & Garland. Arizona retains nothing.


Edit: If retained, max $1.25M per year.

 

[Reverend Mayhem]

Woo baby! The battle of wits with this return

Salary better be retained or something. This one is gonna hurt I think.

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

Hopefully Benning is included.

 

[Some Other Flame]

At least stuff is finally happening

"Canucks looking to unload salaries"

[PensandCaps]

Anything for Garland

I mean he's not that good??

Is it because hes from Massachusetts?

 

[ItWasJustified]

Arizona having a good off-season all things considered.

If the goal is the save money and ice a AHL team then yeah, sure.

 

[The Rochester Rocket]

9th + Roussel + Holtby + Eriksson for OEL and Garland plz

 

[CupInSIX]

Maybe Arizona takes Schmidt & flips him to the Bruins along with Dvorak for Debrusk and a 1st.

 

[RABBIT]

 

[Aqualung]

Hopefully Benning is included.

Would make this deal worthwhile

 

[Love]

Don't omit that Garland is a legit top 6 forward, who fills a huge hole in Vancouver.

He is, I really like Garland. But OEL has one of the worst contracts in the league.

 

[Bettman Returnz]

Please don’t have #9 included!!!

 

[al secord]

Benning probably just went and totally redeemed himself!

 

[ICanMotteBelieveIt]

9th + Roussel + Holtby + Ericsson for OEL and Garland plz

That's what I think will happen. No retention on OEL however.

 

[leafsfan5]

wait OEL is at 8.25M for the next 6 years?

Holy shit Vancouver, you better hope for retention wtf

 

[Vitto79]

Errrr 1st , Schmidt , Holtby ?

 

[Pavelski2112]

If the goal is the save money and ice a AHL team then yeah, sure.

Having a bad team and a bunch of picks in a year where the draft will be good? That should absolutely be the goal
