<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>swinny</b></div><div>I like the Garland fit..... although for Declan amd a 2nd I wonder if you can't get the Canucks to retain $1 million.</div></div>

Are you out of your mind? Canucks decline without retaining.

Garland struggled a bit this year, we just hired Tocchet and now Garland has 2G 4A in the last 6GP. He's an upper-tier middle-six forward who is excellent along the boards and at retrieving pucks.

If he returns to 50-60 pts, which it looks like he will considering his best years were with Tocchet, then the cap hit is starting to look cheap as the cap increases over the duration of the contract.

You're not getting him for a 23-year-old AHL offensive d-man and a 2nd-round pick.... with retained money? The Canucks laugh you out of the atmosphere.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>bhavikp27</b></div><div>I would not trade Carlo in a Horvat trade because that would just create a hole in the lineup for Boston. I would be open to include Lysell and the 2023 1st.</div></div>

Yeah, unfortunately, I'm not sure Lysell moves the needle at all for the Canucks. We have winger depth galore - hence why Harrison (or that LD college prospect you have I'm dropping the name on) was who I included.

Fair on Carlo - I would be shocked if you would be willing to part with him but he's the exact thing the Canucks are lacking. I saw a suggestion that Schenn is included in the deal as he could fill in somewhat as a RHD. The question is whether you guys are a better team with Horvat and Schenn vs just Carlo... I'm honestly not sure that's an upgrade but it could be.

Also heard Boston's management is underpressure to acquire help because of the hometown discounts a lot of the stars have taken.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Digitalbooya06</b></div><div>Minnesota can't do that trade. It doesn't work with the salary cap.</div></div>

Rathbone is in the AHL? The 650,000 makes the cap swap equal.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>markus</b></div><div>Boeser certainly has more value than that.</div></div>

I don't think he does honestly. He's overpaid and underachieving.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>buffbry</b></div><div>0% you are getting Edvinsson, but it was a valient effort</div></div>

Pretty sure he's part of whatever deal would involve Horvat but fair if you wouldn't want to lose him.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jfstompers</b></div><div>Horvat has to be a in addition to Larkin not a replacement, it's just losing more assets to stay the same.</div></div>

I think if you can add both it's perfect but if Larkin is heading out then he makes a quality replacement.
