awful move for boston.

Word has been that retention on Garland is 30%. That $1.485 million. My thinking, you want them to retain 2, the offer has to have either a right handed D or a right handed third line centre.

Otherwise, they can just buy him out and the penalty is less than 2 mil per.

Besides, he's playing his best hockey as a Canuck right now.

How does a capped team like Vancouver add $4.7M of additional money?

Remove DeBrusk and Kane. We need an additional winger. Not someone who is a higher risk at this point. Jake will get his first goal and he’ll do what he does .. score in bunches.

Then ask yourself where do we have more depth in the org. Forward or Defense? Then remove Grzelcyk unless you think Lohrei is ready. Gryzelcyk and maybe a fringe prospect for Garland might make sense, though I’d prefer Duclair personally

I would not trade either one of those guys straight up for Garland.

Just awful.
