The Vancouver Canucks have traded veteran defenceman Tyler Myers to the Dallas Stars.
Vancouver has acquired Dallas’s second-round draft pick in 2027 and fourth-round draft pick in 2029. Additionally, Vancouver is retaining 50 per cent of Myers’s salary.
Myers, the former Kelowna Rocket, had to waive his no-trade clause.
“We would like to thank Tyler for all that he has done for the Canucks organization both on and off the ice,” said Canucks general manager Patrik Allvin. “Not only was he a leader in our locker room, but he also did a lot of great work in the community. We also appreciate Tyler and his agent working with us to get this deal done. Acquiring two more draft picks in this trade with the Stars will help us continue to rebuild and improve our roster in the years to come.”
Myers has one goal and seven assists in 57 games with the Canucks this season.
During his time in Vancouver, Myers played 488 games, scoring 26 goals and adding 112 assists.
The NHL’s trade deadline is Friday.
