Vancouver Canucks forward Conor Garland&#8217;s name has been brought up in trade discussions, according to Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet.
It&#8217;s been long-reported that president Jim Rutherford&#8217;s list of untouchables is rather short, and may very well only consist of Quinn Hughes, Thatcher Demko, and maybe one or two forwards &#8212; but nothing appears truly off the table.
Here&#8217;s what <a href="https://www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/video/garland-potentially-available-trade-canucks-forwards-draw-interest/">Friedman had to say</a> during the first intermission of last night&#8217;s game on the Hockey Night in Canada broadcast.
<blockquote>&#8220;Jim Rutherford has put together his front office, he&#8217;s almost finished, there still could be some more hires. Now he&#8217;s getting down to business talking about potential trades with the rest of the league. There&#8217;s been a lot of rumours about JT Miller, but I think it goes deeper than that. I think the Canucks have a number of their forwards that they&#8217;re discussing with other teams around the league. I don&#8217;t think Pettersson is part of this. I don&#8217;t think Horvat is part of this, but I think some other players and notable ones are part of this, including Conor Garland. You&#8217;ve heard some of the rumours &#8212; the Rangers, Boston Calgary &#8212; but I think New Jersey is in there too potentially on some players who could have term and team control. It&#8217;ll be worth watching. We know Jim Rutherford isn&#8217;t shy, and I think he&#8217;s beginning to get going on what he&#8217;s going to do to reshape the Canucks.&#8221;</blockquote>
Like Miller, Garland is a cost-controlled asset that is on a good contract for the next four seasons, so it&#8217;s no surprise that teams are calling the Canucks about his availability.
