Value of: Connor Garland

Girard is not a fit on the Canucks. They need a RHD with some size and defensive responsibility, not a LD at that price to play behind 7+ million Hughes and OEL. We have Dermott and Rathbone plus Hunt etc, for the 3rd and 4th LD options. Need to spend the money elsewhere (RD partner for Hughes or OEL).
Girard shoots left but plays both sides. AVS fans can chime in with their thoughts and effectiveness in doing so.
Girard is too much like Hughes 2.0 in my opinion. I think if traded Garland could be used to climb into the top 10. If PHI is serious about contending (which is what they claim at least) I could see 5OA + something for 15OA + Garland, giving VAN the opportunity to draft Nemec or Jiricek.
Now I am not sure where VAN management think they are in the contending process, because if the RHD is ready in 3/4 years, the Pettersson and Boeser bridges will be over…
The issue is that I don‘t see a top 4 RHD available for Garland anywhere in the league.

I don't know that Vancouver would want to deal with Garland and Mcdavid on the same line.
Garland would be fantastic in Edmonton I have wanted him here since he was in Arizona

In a vacuum, a deal around Garland for Carlo.
Would then require Bruins trade Debrusk elsewhere for an RD.
So probably not likely.
But Bruins definitely interested in Garland in the past.

If JT Miller is not traded, Garland will get 2nd PP unit time again.
But I have no doubt in my mind he would be a 70+ Point player if he was on the 1st PP Unit.
Guy is very talented

That may actually be a good proposal....I take it is lop sided in Vancouver's favor due to Oilers cap issues. If so I think both teams improve the best they can considering the salary cap.To

...just a thought here...who says no??...
...that's pretty much what I was going for...as a Habs fan, I have no dog in the fight, just thought it would make the most sense for both teams involved...
In terms of value it’s fair. But Barrie doesn’t really fit Vancouver’s D which is already undersized with Hughes and now Rathbone. The team also doesn’t need a second PP quarterback as Hughes is already one of the better ones.
If Garland is traded it should be for a defensive D. Ideally a young Tanev who the team never managed to replace after they let him walk.
I just don’t see the fit here.

I think this is a good proposal, would be pleased if this trade went down.

I like this idea and wonder if a framework of Garland and Myers for Carlo and Debrusk would work? Assuming there might need to be some tinkering but it feels like this would be a solid base to build around.

I would actually do this, good proposal.
I also don’t think you need the second round pick added
I’d say take out the 2nd or Stanley and that’s fair. With the extra asset it’s likely overpayment.

Really awesome 2nd liner Garland is. Can expect a big package for the guy and it might be worth it.

We have Juulsen, Myers, Poolman and Woo as RHD, and Dermott and Burroughs who play right side. If an inclusion of a third pairing (or lower) RD helps things, by all means help yourself to Juulsen or Poolman or Dermott or Burroughs, or in the case of Myers, he would be available for a small add.
