Patrik Allvin will be busy heading onto July 1st; 11 new contracts must be signed before free agency opens, and Tyler Myers is one of them.

The Canucks will have two choices to make before the market opens, but they've made it known to Myers and his agents that they had other things to take care of before. At this point, both parties have made it known they'd like a reunion; Myers loves the city, the fans and playing for the Canucks.

Since the day Rick Tocchet and his staff took over, Tyler Myers has been seen in a whole new perspective. The giant player is isolated for minutes in specific situations, allowing him to be his best version. Was that worth the $6M AAV he carried? No, but it remained the best hockey he had played in the last five years.

Rick Dhaliwal confirmed the speculation on what Tyler Myers' following contract parameters were expected. The insider reported that Myers would most likely be getting a deal in the range of two or three years, with an AAV under the $3M mark:

Dhaliwal reports he believes Tyler Myers deal, when done, looks like a 2-3 year range, a tad under $3M AAV

In their six starting defencemen, the Canucks only had two right-handed shot d-men, Filip Hronek and Tyler Myers. Both are headed to free agency; Myers has full autonomy, whereas Hronek's rights will still belong to the Canucks. Should Allvin and his troops make it a priority to sign both of them?
