With limited knowledge on Mermis, do you really want to give a 3rd pair guy 3mil, I know they did it this year with Cole but, they expected to only be decent and had money to blow.
I would imagine they would go for an Ekman-Larsson type (veteran looking to prove himself for less money that thinks they can take Soucy's spot in the top4)
Cap rumoured at 87.7mil next year, they probably try to move Garland in the off-season for more in-season flexibility for trades to improve any areas that fall short
