The rise of Conor Garland, edge work extraordinaire

The Rise of Conor Garland

Conor Garland has not been a household name in the NHL. The smooth skating but relatively undersized winger was completely passed over in the 2014 NHL Entry Draft.

He was selected by the Arizona Coyotes in the 5th-round of the 2015 NHL Draft after a notable season with the Moncton Wildcats, where he led the QMJHL and CHL in scoring with 129 points in 67 regular season games and 25 points in 16 playoff games.

This performance earned him the award for MVP of the QMJHL and a spot on the QMJHL First All-Star team. He followed up this success with 128 points in 62 regular season games in the 2015-2016 season.
