The Tucson Roadrunners are in an interesting spot right now. In their two home games to close out 2016, there was very little production from anywhere besides the top line, resulting in two regulation losses to the worst team in the division, San Antonio.
One player that is looking to change that is 20-year-old Conor Garland.
Garland hasn’t had the most productive of seasons (2 goals, 4 assists on 45 shots in 25 games), but two of those points came on the team’s most recent California road trip.
“He makes a lot of plays,” defenseman Kevin Connauton said of Garland.
