Reinhart or Garland?

[RanOutOfTime]

Looking at the real trade pieces, it really was 9th for Conor Garland. Oel for our cap dumps. Would you guys have traded 9th overall for Conor Garland or Sam Reinhart?

Garland 100%. His style of play, energy, and production is what's needed. He wil hit 60-70 points next season

 

[Icebreakers]

Garland knowing that he cost just 5m.

Reinhart will probably ask for 7+ and settle in mid 6 range.

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

Depends on Reinhart’s contract
But Garland play with a lot more edge

 

[canuckking1]

Reinhart is the more proven/better player at this point but Garland has proven he can be productive in a 14-15/MIN a night role. I'm not sure Reinhart could do the same when his ice time gets reduced 3-4 minutes. Garland is also cheaper.

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

I take Judy.

Problem is she should not have cost a Top 10 pick.

 

[Tryamkin]

Garland is that sandpaper type of forward that we craved. Definitely preferred over Reinhart, especially including cap.

 

[CherryToke]

Garland is a better play driver and a better player

 

[m9]

Neither

 

[geebster]

Both played on a horrible team the past few years...and one of them gave a lot more of a damn than the other (despite the lack of success). I'm taking that guy over Reinhart any day of the week.

Garland brings the energy this team needs and is the better goal scorer I believe.

 

[Dural]

More risk with Garland, but the cap hit is lower, and the offensive ceiling could be higher, so probably the better option for this team.

 

[RanOutOfTime]

Wow, I did not expect everyone to pick Garland. I thought Reinhart did pretty well last year when Eichel went down and though it would be a mixed poll. He's also more proven then Garland

Reinhart is soft, relies on the PP for production and is an entitled little d$ck

 

[DonnyNucker]

Also a much better person

guess who they’d pick if the Canucks had traded for Reinhart

 

[VancouverJagger]

Garland is gonna be a fan favourite here..........he seems pretty stoked to be free from the dessert I know he's gonna be an all out energy guy for us. Our team is starting to fill up with those. Hogs, now him and Podz - all high energy guys. Great for our team.

 

[Get North]

Not a fan of tiny wingers like Garland, but it says a lot that he's more grittier than Reinhart. Imagine playing against McDavid, I think guys like Garland who can skate and hit are a better fit than all IQ and no speed or hitting Reinhart.

I hope Garland wasn't a one hit wonder. He was drafted in the NHL a year later than he was eligible. It seems like he's just a prospect that has earned his way to the league instead of being a #2 overall pick.

100% LMAO

Canucks fans are so blinded with homerism.

Reinhart has been a consistent top six forward on a dumpster fire team for the past five years. He can play both center and wing and has shown the ability to drive his own line.

Reinhart is a better player than Garland at this point. Canucks fans are just wildin' as per usual...

Garland had a higher PPG last year, has a more well rounded game, will come at a lower cap hit, and is (slightly) younger.

To play devils advocate though:

• Garland is less proven, might just be a flash in the pan season last year
• Heavier game smaller/lighter body == injuries/decline earlier faster than Reinhart

But I love Hogs, and Garland is just an older Hogs, which is great

Reinhart also plays center, allowing the Canucks the flexibility to run 3 lines that can score.

I still voted Garland though and would have regardless of this trade, he's one of my fav players to watch and I think he's going to provide solid value on his contract.

What? Garland plays center? When did that happen? I thought he only played wing with dvorak/schmaltz as his center

I meant Reinhart does, sorry I should've clarified. Was just jumping off your devil's advocate point.

 

[innitfam]

Mmm might prefer Reinhart in a vacuum but Garland is younger, cheaper and only slightly less productive.
