Jason Garrison News

Canucks practising pplay and still no Jason Garrison on either unit.

After the big contract in the offseason, Garrison has gotten off to an immensely slow start to the season. With 2 points in the first 13 games and no powerplay points, Garrison's value takes a hit if he loses out on the PP opportunity.

Garrison left $ on table - was offered "Wideman money" elsewhere - but wanted to play for hometown VAN, which held firm on internal $ scale.

The Canucks needed a booming shot to anchor their power play and Garrison helps fit that need. He'll be a good look among second tier defensemen next season.

The Panthers have had steady offense from the blue line of late, as defenseman Jason Garrison has points in consecutive games, including a tally.

Expect Garrison to lead the Panthers blue line tonight with Ed Jovanovski sidelined. His 12 goals in 44 games have been impressive to say the least.

Garrison has been steaming hot, playing in all situations. He potted eight goals while with the Rochester Americans indicating he could have an offensive upside.
