Travis 576 Report post Posted July 1, 2012 I'd rather have Matt Carle than Garrison, myself. Quite a payday for a breakout year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RedWingsRox 614 Report post Posted July 2, 2012 Bit of a gamble for a player with 1 good year. Let's hope he turns out like the other Dmen that they got from Florida ... Ballard ... haha. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Crymson Report post Posted July 2, 2012 Garrison wanted to go to Vancouver. He took a discount; other teams offered him more money. It's unlikely that the Wings would have been able to land him, short of offering him a deal he couldn't reasonably refuse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's unlikely that the Wings would have been able to land him, short of offering him a deal he couldn't reasonably refuse. Which would have been a mistake because he could be a one hit wonder.

Hockey13Playa 240 Report post Posted July 2, 2012 What was the reason Florida couldn't retain him? Money? Well if that is the case they signed old man Kuba (36) to 4 million per year. Garrison is only 27 and got .6 million more. Seems like an odd choice. Granted he could be a "one hit wonder" but what does Florida have to lose? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bring Back The Bruise Bros 1,029 Report post Posted July 2, 2012 (edited) Vancouver just got a little (emphasis on little) less douchier. He's got serious potential. Oh well. Bring Suter in, Ken! Edited July 2, 2012 by Bring Back The Bruise Bros Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
