Sidney, formerly Vancouver
He's been our 3rd best player this season after Hughes and Lankinen.

He always had the talent. It's a bit of a shame that he hasn't been given the minutes to really excel until this year. He was actually trending down in minutes over his time on the Canucks and last year averaging 14.32/game he had his first 20 goal season and was +19. This season he's up over 19 mins per game and his PPG has increased from .573 to almost a point per game.

He went from a guy who we’d have to swallow some of his contract to move off of a couple years ago, to being underrated (outside of Vancouver) last season to our 3rd best player this season (and underpaid).

Things can change that quickly.
And I'm so glad for it. Never wanted him gone. He's always been able to drive play but now he's getting the points and the ice time. If the entire team had half the hustle Garland does this team would be be top 5 in scoring.
