14-year veteran at center of trade talks between Toronto and Vancouver
According to David Pagnotta of The Fourth Period, the Toronto Maple Leafs and Vancouver Canucks have had discussions over a possible trade involving defenceman Tyler Myers.
"The Canucks have been engaged in trade talks with the Toronto Maple Leafs, whom have been suggesting to everyone that their focus is on upgrading up front, about a Myers deal. There appears to be steady traction there, from what I've been told." Pagnotta said.
He added, "Leafs GM Kyle Dubas is exploring all his options, at both ends of the ice, but it seems talks with Vancouver on Myers have shifted his focus for the time being."

Myers, 32, has one year remaining on his contract beyond the 2022-23 season with a cap hit of $6 million. As Pagnotta points out, Myers has a ten-team no-trade list, but Toronto is not on it, making a potential deal easier to complete.
In 49 games this season, the 14-year veteran has ten points (one goal, nine assists), 55 penalty minutes and is a minus-seven.
