Stars Acquire Myers from Canucks Amid Winning Streak
4 Mar
Summary
- Tyler Myers traded to Dallas Stars after seven seasons with Vancouver.
- Myers has a no-move clause, meaning he approved the trade to Dallas.
- Dallas Stars are on a 10-game winning streak, vying for Central Division lead.
Tyler Myers is on the move, having been traded to the Dallas Stars after seven seasons with the Vancouver Canucks. The six-foot-seven defenceman's transaction was confirmed on Wednesday. Vancouver's return in the deal remains unclear at this time.
Meyers has played 1,123 career NHL games for the Buffalo Sabres, Vancouver Canucks, and Winnipeg Jets, amassing 403 points. He is currently in the second year of a three-year, $9-million contract. The veteran defenseman has been sidelined in recent games, anticipating a move as the Canucks are in last place in the NHL.
The Stars, who Myers approved the trade to due to his no-move clause, are currently riding a 10-game winning streak. This acquisition strengthens a Dallas team heavily involved in a tight Central Division race, trailing the Colorado Avalanche by six points.
