A new trade like Sean Monahan for Kent Hughes? The Canucks have suddenly announced their clear desire to trade Conor Garland

Their number one priority this summer is to get rid of Conor Garland's contract via trade, much like the Calgary Flames did last summer with Sean Monahan (in a trade with the Montreal Canadiens).

Could Kent Hughes try the same thing again?

Garland is a right winger earning $4.95 million per season until 2026. He's productive, but he's very one-dimensional.

He has amassed:

46 points in 81 games this season

52 points in 77 games in 2022

A pace of 65 points / 82 games in 2021.

If we base it on the Monahan trade, it could certainly cost, at a minimum, a first-round pick for the Canucks to get rid of him.

Would you like Kent Hughes to do it?
