I think adding Garland would create a mess of trouble after this season regarding the cap.

I like the player but I'm not sure the Flames are in a position (which is honestly really really bad considering where this team is in the standings) to add term beyond this year.

I think if we're adding someone this TDL, it has to be an expiring contract or we'll need to somehow include a contract on the way out.

The Flames already have over $82 million committed for next season when the cap is projected at $83.5 million.
