Not enough for Garland retained

Not having a guy who has proven he can be a starter is a good reason why they cant win a cup.
Also garland isnt worth near that.

1967+

This team can’t win a Stanley Cup.

Every Leafs team for the last 7 years or so has been good enough on paper to win the Cup. This is no different.

You’re right Garland is worth more than that, especially with retention

Canucks pass easily

Wow, the leafs can get an insane haul for jarnkrok then, they dont even nees to retain and hed still cost almost 500k less!

Leafs fans convincing themselves the team can win is like believing that Charlie Brown is finally gonna kick the football

Garland is miles better than Jarnkrok and it’s not even close lmao

Conor Garland is a way better player and he's healthier. Not even a comparison

No, he really isn't.

Lol, yeah dude, the guy canucks fans spent most of the last 2 years trying to dump on everyone is so so good now. Amazing stuff

Garland had more goals, more assists, and more points. A better GPG, APG, and PPG. Better G/60, A/60, and P/60

Garland also had a better GF%, SF%, FF%, CF%, xGF%, GF/60, GA/60, SA/60, FF/60, FA/60, CF/60, CA/60, and xGA/60

So please tell me how Jarnkrok is better?

Among players with 40+ GP on either the Leafs and Canucks Garland was
10th in goals
11th in points
12th in G/60
8th in A1/60
11th in P/60
3rd in GF%
3rd in SF%
1st in FF%
2nd in CF%
1st in xGF%
9th in GF/60
3rd in GA/60
9th in xGF/60
2nd in xGA/60

Never said he was better, just that if garland is worth such a haul for putting up such meh scoring numbers suddenly then jarnkrok must be worth a haul too because he's cheaper, doesnt need to be retained and isn't much worse an over all player.
IE, you are massively over rating a middle six guy's value

And he's still not half as valuable as you are pretending he is

Liljegren, Robertson, and a 3rd is hardly a haul for a 45-50 point winger who’s extremely good defensively and an elite play driver with 50% retention for 2 seasons

He’d be the Leafs best forward outside of the core 4

If you think this past years roster was good enough to win a cup then idk what to tell you.

Bertuzzi is probably a bit better and Knies could very well be better by next season. But yeah, he’s definitely more valuable than Jarnkrok, especially at the same cap hit.

He really isnt worth that much and considering the leafs 5th best forward signed is 21 year old just starting to adjust to the league knies or journey man mcmann or middle 6 guy jarnkrok, thats not impressive. It doesnt make him valuable to any significant extent.
And it's just extra funny when canucks fans were trying to give this guy away here everyday up until about 4 or 5 months ago

He was good the whole time

Then why did all your fellow canucks fans want to dump him so bad?

Not worth the paper it's written on

Canucks are NOT trading Garland. So jam it .
