Garland was acquired by the Canucks on the 23rd in a massive deal that also brought defenceman Oliver Ekman-Larrson to town, while shipping out their 9th overall pick, a 2022 second-round pick, a 2023 7th round pick as well as players Loui Eriksson, Jay Beagle and Antoine Roussel.
He’s appeared in 164 games with the Coyotes over the last three years scoring 47 goals and 96 points. Now, he’ll get a chance to continue to grow his game in the Canuck’s top-six.
