Description
I'm a big fan of what Garland does at 5v5. He is fast, aggressive, and has great production. I think he is limited elsewhere, but that's fine. If Vancouver would eat just 950K I'd send them a decent prospect and a pick.
3rd line is a good mix of size, speed, and versatility.
Bringing in another top D was one of Sullivan's asks in December of last year. Orlov fills that need. He and Letang will hit a wall at some point, but over the next 3-4 years this should be a great top pairing.

Could be a fine trade if it happens after a different move

My assumption is that new management goes after a proven #1 and this lands them a back up and an asset.

I definitely agree about Garland. Getting him at 4mil or under would be a good deal. I would hope maybe they could do it without giving up Smith though - but that's fine if not.

If they sign Orlov, my guess is he plays 2nd pair with Petry. Orlov/Letang might be to offense/puck moving heavy - might want to split them up. That would be a great top 2 pairings though
