Frank Seravalli put Conor Garland at #4 on his trade board, suggesting he’s a prime candidate to be traded before the 2021-22 season starts.
Garland’s representations tells Seravalli that’s there’s been no dialogue on a new contract since May 20. Garland will be a RFA this summer.
Elliotte Friedman reported that the Leafs were heavily involved in trade talks for Garland before they finalized the pre-deadline trade for Nick Foligno.
It should be an interesting summer for the Coyotes, as they will apparently try to cut salary. Friedman reported earlier that he believes Phil Kessel and Oliver Ekman-Larsson will be traded, and that Garland and Darcy Kuemper are up in the air.
