Jason Garrison trade should help Lightning Canuck

The Vancouver Canucks and Tampa Bay Lightning each got what they needed out of their draft-day trade. The Lightning, primed to contend in the Eastern Conference, needed a second-pairing defenseman and power-play guy. Enter Jason Garrison, who struggled through an injury-marked second season with the Canucks but was a legitimate top-four guy for years before that. MORE: Garrison, D'Angelo Russell Jersey 29, counts for $4.6 million against the cap for four more seasons. Fifteen of his 36 points last season came with the man advantage. That'll help in Tampa, since Sami Salo won't return to the team's top power-play unit. Also part of the deal: Tampa getsthe rights to forward Jeff Costello and a seventh-round pick at the 2015 NHL draft, and Vancouver gets the 50th overall pick in 2014. At even strength, largely against second-line competition,Vancouver took le s than 50 percent of all shot attempts with Garrison on the ice, which was worse than their overall percentage. That's the first such occurrence for Garrison since 2010-11 with the Panthers. On the other side, the Canucks cleared cap space, putting them a little more than $20 million under the projected limit. Garrison isn't a bad player but he's as good as he'll get, coming off a bad season and generally doesn't profile as someone who will help in a rebuild, which they certainly seem to have entered. Now they'll havethat money to spend on someone who can help ... unle s they waste in free agency this season, which is certainly po sible. Isaiah Rider Jr. Jersey
