Garland is a bonefied Top-6 Forward that tbh is worth as much as Boeser due to his contract situation.

Thread: Some different ideas
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Nqutilus</b></div><div>Avs easily decline. Even if we did this there would need to be retention coming out of your own pocket. $2.5M isn't much to swallow, ESPECIALLY for 1 year.</div></div>

JT Miller fills so many needs for the Avs. I don't think it would be all of that for him though.

Byram hasn't played since the start of January and Colorado has been buzzing without him. So you are literally adding Miller without losing anything from your current roster. Avs have the pressure on them to get passed the second round this year and this is basically their last year to make a HUGE push.

Moreover, Miller is a perfect fit to replace Kadri next year when he walks and takes 7M+. He'll probably be better than what Kadri does next year.
