I think you need to add more from Canucks side I mean this is Lafreniere were talking about a 1st OA. The guy has been on fire right

How about Coyotes trade Eriksson, Beagle, Roussel, and a first for Garland? Canucks have to keep OEL.

The reason why is that the Canucks need a rebuild and you have to give to get.
Garland and Miller are the 2 most tradable guys right now for the Canucks.

Kapanen is younger and cheaper. Way worse, but like I said, younger and cheaper (and not even all that younger/cheaper either). Throw a Poulin on top of him and lets get this done Jimbo (new Jimbo)

Relax, I didn't say Lafreniere for Miller and Garland. I said something around that. Trades need a starting point.
In NYR eyes, they could say a 1st overall pick still has a lot of value, they could've got more say if they traded the pick in 2020. But in your guys' eyes you say you'd want more if those two were going to the Rangers and Laf was coming with whatever is Vancouver bound.
But Lafreniere is still a young player who will be good one day. On the Canucks I think he'd be a very, very good addition. I know if he goes there things are going to look up and go very well.
Even if Rutherford and Co. were to come in and decide that they would actually like a more intense rebuild than we are anticipating, Garland would still be one of the last moves you would look to make. Guy is only 25 (soon to be 26), signed to a very reasonable contract with term, and is the heart and soul guy you want young players in a rebuild to be around.
Miller obviously is the better player, but in terms of trade value a Garland deal would lead to a genuine discussion about how much of an overpayment was it?

The curse of Basant Motors.
As soon as a new spokesperson is hired, they get dealt.
How do you add a top defenseman without giving anything up? Honestly even with Miller, Garland on the table who is trading a top dman?
Garland is definitely a heart and soul guy. An agitator. Crafty, good edges. He is very small and not particularly fast either whcih JR has mentioned numerous times that he wants from this roster. I don't love having Hoglander and Garland on the same top 6 personally, its just kinda too small it seems.
If I am the Canucks though I am listening to all offers and am ready to tear it down given what that 2023 draft looks like. Get a few first round picks in 23', restock your prospect pool and free up cap room. It's the play that has to be made despite it kind of sucking in the short term. This team isn't going anywhere, it's just poorly constructed, capped out and has no more prospects coming.

I personally rather keep Garland. For the amount Benning recently gave up in a trade for him, it won't be worth the risk of losing assets, while still being stuck with Ekman-Larsson contract. The trade would have to blow the Canucks socks off.
Chychrun is a left shot dman who wants to be on the powerplay. We already have Hughes, OEL, Rathbone with those characteristics.
Let me give you guys the Friedman/Marek playbook:
1. Identify a young-ish player with a lot of value based on production/contract
2. Identify a young-ish player with a lot of value based on production/contract who is playing on a bad/rebuilding/underperforming team
3. Identify a young-ish player with a lot of value based on production/contract, who is playing on a bad/rebuilding/underperforming team, then use words like "wonder", "believe", "think", that they "might" be "available" for the right "price"
4. Identify a young-ish player with a lot of value based on production/contract, who is playing on a bad/rebuilding/underperforming team, then use words like "wonder", "believe", "think", that they "might" be "available" for the right "price", and ultimately when the player isn't moved by the deadline, use phrases like "they never got that offer", "the ask was too great for many teams" "I still believe he is available, but I think talks have cooled".
Repeat next trade deadline.

I don't even know who we would trade for Garland.
I'm guessing maybe start with someone like Sharangovich?

If it is NJ, given the immergence of Dawson Mercer at C would they trade Pavel Zacha for Garland?

Why would Vancouver trade Garland for Zacha?
