Conor Garland Traded to Columbus: Nucko’s Thoughts

Conor Garland wanted to be a Canuck. On July 1st, 2025, he signed a 6-year, $6 million contract extension with the team that will kick in at the start of next season. The contract includes a full no-movement clause for the first 3 years of the deal. Unfortunately for Garland, he's currently on the last year of a 5x4.95 with no trade protection.

Here come the trades. On Wednesday, the Canucks traded Tyler Myers to the Dallas Stars (50% retained) for a 2027 2nd round pick and a 2029 4th round pick.

They had a public feud between stars, traded J.T. Miller, missed the playoffs, traded for Evander Kane, started off this current season in terrible fashion, and capped the year off by trading Quinn Hughes in December. It was a real rollercoaster of a year for the team. Except it was a rollercoaster that only goes down.
