Vancouver made him afour-year, $24 million proposal, but could not get close to Anaheim’s $7 million cap hit annually, according to ‘The Fourth Period’.
“The number-one target for centermen was Mikael Granlund, but the price was too high. The agent had said it’s gonna cost seven and the Canucks couldn’t do seven. I think they might have gone to six, but in my heart, I do believe that Granlund one, Dvorak two, and they shifted to Boeser.”
Granlund suited up for the San Jose Sharks last year, leading his team with 45 points in 52 contests. Since coming to Dallas via trade, he recorded 21 points in 31 games and 10 points (five goals, five assists) in 18 playoff games.
His best was in Game 4 of Round 2 against Winnipeg when he had a hat trick and led the Stars to a 3-1 win. He took Dallas to the Western Conference Final and averaged over 17 minutes of ice time per game.
Granlund has over 900 games of NHL experience
A veteran of more than 900 NHL games and three 60-point seasons in his past four years, Granlund provides a degree of veteran presence to a Ducks franchise that has not appeared in the playoffs since 2018.
The team’s path, now, is to boast a balanced roster with stars like Demko, Boeser, and Elias Pettersson, GM Patrik Allvin said.Vancouver recently acquired Evander Kane througha trade, hoping to use his offense to bring them back into the playoffs.
