Buffalo has cap space for good players, not those two.

Garland is a good player

This is a win-win, lose-lose trade for both teams.

For VAN >> Get rid of Garland and Myers and their bloated contracts, get 2-dmen and tons of cap space back to get a bonafide D-man.

For BUF >> Get an experienced D-man in Myers, Garland- who can play anywhere from 7th-13F, plus the 1st and 2nd to use as ammo in future trades. Garland's contract is a problem after this year, but a buyout remains, or they can ship him off to a cap basement dweller next offseason. Benson and Savoie, rightfully, go back to the WHL, while the AHL players continue to develop too.

Canucks pass very easily, we aren't moving 1st to get rid of Myers, we aren't moving a 2nd to dump Garland, no thanks on the spare pieces coming back our way, especially stillman, he was unplayable here.
