Report: Blue Jackets Have Interest In Conor Garland
Blue Jackets and Canucks trade partners?
Bob Frid-USA TODAY Sports - Report: Blue Jackets Have Interest In Conor GarlandInsider Elliotte Friedman said on his 32 Thoughts Podcast today that the Blue Jackets have an interest in Vancouver Canucks forward Conor Garland. He stated that the rumors have started to revolve around Jack Roslovic and his $4 million/yr, expiring contract at the end of the year. Garland makes $4.95m a year for what it’s worth. He also states that other teams are interested as well. They said on the show The Athletic's Aaron Portzline has confirmed that the CBJ has an interest in Garland.
You can listen to the full podcast below.
Vancouver needs a defenseman and Columbus has a plethora, so adding a forward seems to be going against what they need. Vancouver also needs cap space, and with Roslovic making a million or so less, I guess that makes sense. Andrew Peeke's name has also been mentioned by a few people as someone who could be involved in such a trade as well.
We all know where there’s smoke, there’s fire, so don’t be surprised if a deal goes down at some point in the near future.

What's taking place in Detroit is nothing short of a circus. Players being called up and going back down not ever being used, to say nothing of the wrong ones being called up in the first place. Real gong show.
