Vancouver Canucks trade defenceman Tyler Myers to Dallas Stars: reports
Dallas Stars acquire veteran defenseman Tyler Myers, addressing their right-side blue line needs as Vancouver gains valuable 2027 and 2029 draft picks while retaining half his salary.
- On Wednesday, the Vancouver Canucks sent Tyler Myers to the Dallas Stars for a 2027 second-round and 2029 fourth-round pick, retaining half his $1.5 million contract.
- With the NHL trade deadline two days away, Vancouver, in sell-mode, traded Myers to Dallas, which sought a stay-at-home right-side upgrade for its playoff push, sources say.
- Yesterday, Myers had one goal and seven assists in 57 games, under a $3 million AAV contract in his second year of a three-year deal with a full no-move clause.
- Myers projects to slot into a third-pairing role for the Stars, adding physicality and potentially becoming the first Texas-born player to appear Friday, if he suits up then.
- Looking ahead, Vancouver Canucks will likely move additional players before Friday, as Myers' trade adds draft picks amid a busy right-handed defenceman market.
