Nathan MacKinnon would tear the organisation to the ground (yes, a mild exaggeration) before Conor Garland puts his feets in that locker room.

I think MacKinnon hates playing against him I'm sure he'll be fine playing with him, especially if that means they have a better chance at winning the Stanley Cup.

”You think so”. Haha, okey. For the sake of this AGM we can all just close our eyes and pretend so. I see myself out now, thanks!

Did garland sleep with his girl or something cause if MacKinnon is a professional then he will get over it especially if it means they have another deep run, mainly he might be more inclined to this situation, seeing how Colorado's depth just disappeared causing the AVS to be knocked out by Seattle in the 1st round.

The history between the both of them goes way back, culminating with MacKinnon throwing Garlands own helmet at him.

Yes, Colorado has depth problems, but there are other options besides Garland to fix that.

What did he do, it just seems like he annoyed him during the times they played lance Stephenson and LeBron James like. So if LeBron can do it why can't MacKinnon.

This seems like speculation there is no evidence besides one helmet toss during a scrum. Until I see some level of qualified evidence I'm going to chop it is as rumors.

It’s absolutely rumors, no way that MacKinnon will come out and say “yeah I hate that dude’s guts because he said blah blah blah when we were teenagers”.

Same goes for Domi. The rumor is that the Avs targeted him at the TDL and key people in the locker room said no. I doubt we’ll hear that story from a firsthand witness.

MacKinnon is an adult and I’m sure he can get over any personal beefs he has if it means winning another cup. But just calling out that Garland with term is something that, according to rumors, probably wouldn’t make your star player too happy.

No worries man. These are just speculations and rumors and as such just my opinion. The word is that they hate eachothers from their time at shattuck and it didn’t ease the rumor that MacKinnon threw a helmet in Garlands face. However, this will obviously never be more than a rumor since there is absolutely nothing in it for either one of them to comment.

The Avs lost the first round because by the end of the series, they had a 34-year-old AHL defenseman in Brad Hunt playing left wing and Lars Eller playing 2C. Avs were gutted last season. Not to take anything away from Seattle - they were good - but the Avs did not replace the talent they should have and were so injured.

He hates his guts, he has hated his guts for a long term. Guys that get the largest contract in the NHL don’t have to be professional when it comes to guys they hate the team accommodates them and don’t pretend for a minute it doesn’t happen, and the Avs locker room has reportedly blocked moves in the past. Garland to any team that has MacKinnon on it isn’t ever happening.

There is always a lot of chatter about how tight the Avs locker room is. Last year, there was (supposedly) a trade being considered for Max Domi, and the trade did not materialize because of how he would fit in the locker room. Avs rumors about potential trades are so tight because nothing slips out...but the chemistry checks seems to be real. I definitely do not see Garland as a target because of this.

Nichushkin is getting escorts from the Russian Mafia I think we are past the point of "team culture" if MacKinnon has a problem with Garland and he's that petty that he won't let him into the team even if it helps them, then MacKinnon isn't the leader I thought he was. As far as I'm concerned Garland is annoying to play against but great to play with like a lite Brad Marchand.

Oh Joy a conspiracy theorist. I too can find "information" relating to this situation on the internet. "One thing: it says nothing about Nichushkin at all. It says the girl was in his room but where was Val? Note: Russians (mafia etc) put women in hotel rooms of their targets so that when the target gets back, the girl is there. There will be a recording device for blackmail."

Don't use incomplete information to try to push a narrative on a fake trading board to try to make your point. That's just tactless.

You know this how? Were you there? Regardless I don't really care that much cause this whole tight locker room is bs, they are only tight cause they won, if they start losing they would deteriorate, so again unless Garland did something so obscene that not even god could forgive him I can't justify a solid reason why MacKinnon would care at all.
