4 Canucks not named Miller or Boeser that could be traded this offseason

#3: Conor Garland

Conor Garland started the season off strong, slowed down and then ended the season strong. It’s been a rollercoaster of a season for him.

Garland brought spins, speed, energy and a high work ethic to the Canucks even when he wasn’t putting up points. However, there were times when Garland needed to simplify his game and just pass the puck.

He managed 19 goals and 33 assists for 52 points this past season. Those aren’t bad numbers at all. The assists and points were career-highs for Garland.

Garland’s name has also been brought up in trade rumours in the past few months. It’s hard not to see why teams would be interested in the shift and feisty top-six forward.

For the Canucks they could fetch at least a second or third round pick, a mid-tier prospect or two. Garland also has a contract with an AAV of 4.95 million for four more seasons. It’s a decent contract but Rutherford and Allvin have spoken about wanting to clear cap space and Garland could become a casualty.

If the offer is really good, Garland could leave Vancouver after one season. Or Rutherford and Allvin like what Garland brings and end up hanging onto him. I’m fine with whatever happens with him.

#4: Tyler Myers

Tyler Myers and contract is one of the most divisive topics among Canucks fans. Some just hate on Myers and his contract, others are fine with it and others (like myself) have embraced the chaos he brings.

There are times when Myers looks fine defensively but there are many times when he looked very bad and has made some poor giveaways.

According to Seravalli, there is interest in Myers. Starting July 1, Myers has to submit a 10-team no-trade list as a modified no-trade clause kicks in.

Trading Myers would clear up cap space. But there would be a big hole in the right side and the Canucks would have to look for suitable a replacement. If they do manage to clear cap space by trading Myers, they could use that cap space to potentially find someone better and cheaper than Myers.

Myers may have a bad contract but it’s encouraging to see that there is interest in him. The Canucks should just find the best offer and keep moving forward.
