Conor Garland, a twenty-nine-year-old forward for the Vancouver Canucks, recently played his five hundredth NHL game, marking a significant milestone for the two thousand fifteen draft class. Garlands journey from a junior league star to a key player in the big leagues began in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League, where he racked up three hundred twenty-eight points in two hundred six games and still holds the all-time points record for the Moncton Wildcats. He won the Michel Brière Trophy for the QMJHLs Most Valuable Player in two thousand fifteen and made his NHL debut with the Arizona Coyotes in two thousand eighteen. Garland became a full-time NHL player in the two thousand nineteen to two thousand twenty season and was traded to the Vancouver Canucks in two thousand twenty-one, signing a five-year extension worth four point nine five million dollars annually.
