Garland is a free asset and teams aren’t biting

Teams want to be paid to take him on

There's nothing wrong with the Canes trade, but it does nothing for Carolina. They do not need more depth pieces.

Sorry but Vancouver doesn't even have the 4th best team in the Pacific.

And Bertuzzi at that offer, Detroit offered him far more than that. And zero chance he plays that far away from his GF and child in Michigan.

Then we keep him.Dont believe all the stories of doom n gloom for the Canucks we dont,theyre just stories.We will be cap compliant by opening day.

I know, those creditable hockey writers with their anti Vancouver agenda when reporting on rumors. Its a conspiracy man.

Fair enuf I appreciate the counter I was gonna have him at 6.5 million but some how decided to put him at 5.5
Just updated it to 6.5 x 5 lmk your thoughts

I would only offer him a large contract if we were able to buy out OEL

Spin it which ever way you want.Facts speak for themselves.

That Vancouver is in a cap issue, every team knows it, and no one has traded for garland for free since before the last trade deadline? Huge spin cycle

You being one of those so called experts would know right?All the Hype is actually pretty silly.We will be Cap compliant by opening day with or without Garland.Give ur head a shake.spin it which ever way you want the FACTS rule.

Im not. Reading actual known and respected hockey folks. Whatever you need to do to feel better about Vancouver though

I can carry this on all day,but i have actual things to do.If you choose to be sucked in by all the B.S. thats up to you.The real life facts are what really counts.They are we will be cap compliant by opening day.With or without Garland.

That doesn’t change the fact that no one is interested in paying for garland.

Are you for real.give it up n move on.Lets revisit this if n when Garland is traded. Look me up im not goin anywhere.

BS, he had 50 points ion the third line, they can get a mid round pick for him.

Hawks aren't interested in a LD

Ever hear of a buyout?

Uh yeah. That is the report

So you don’t believe he would cost to acquire but think a buyout is plausible?

No, i was thinking of Myers but after his bonus is paid out, he's a one million $ salary but with a 6 million $ cap hit. They will be able to try him to a team trying to make the cap floor, my guess is Arizona.

You don’t get a discount on the buyout cost after the bonus is paid. Buying him out only saves you 666,667 in cash space

Also, you ever hear of retained salary? He thinks the Canucks won't be cap compliant by Oct. 1st.

Who said they wouldn’t be? They aren’t right now and teams aren’t doing them any favors

I can't argue with a guy that's never heard of retained salary.

Yeah because the entire league would rather screw the Canucks than make a hockey deal.......OK

Hawks decline. The last thing they would spend a pick on is another left shot D.
