A National Hockey League insider has revealed which teams could enter the mix for Vancouver Canucks defenseman Tyler Myers leading up to the trade deadline.
We're a little over a month away from the National Hockey League's trade deadline for the 2025-26 season and action is beginning to pick up with several members of the Vancouver Canucks finding their way into the rumor mill in recent weeks.
Veteran defenseman Tyler Myers has seen his name pop up lately, however with a full-no movement clause this season, there's no guarantee that he'll find his way out of town before March 6th.
"It's a pretty similar situation. If the team's going to come to you and say, 'Look, we have something, and we want to discuss it,' we have to discuss it. But he has a no-move [clause]. He secured it for the kind of deal, and the intention was to play in Vancouver. He's a veteran guy who wanted to finish his career in Vancouver. So that's even a more delicate discussion. Like I said, it's all hypothetical, and I have a hard time dancing around all these hypotheticals that, until we have the actual team and the GM of Vancouver wanting to discuss it, it's just hypothetical." Myers' agent JP Barry said.
NHL insider reveals which teams could enter the mix for Vancouver Canucks' Tyler Myers
While making an appearance on Sekeres and Price recently, National Hockey League insider Jeff Marek shared that if the Vancouver Canucks are willing to trade Tyler Myers, the Dallas Stars, Detroit Red Wings and Utah Mammoth could all be potential fits.
"Will there be teams interested? Yeah, absolutely. A couple top of mind I would wonder initially about, listen they're one of the hottest teams in the NHL right now and that's the Utah Mammoth. Not exactly a secret, they're probably looking for another defender. He could make some sense there in a second pairing role, will move John Marino down." Marek said.
He added, "The Detroit Red Wings, even though I think they're looking for more of a left-shot D than a right-shot D. I can see the Detroit Red Wings. A couple of other teams, I mean Dallas I believe has had interest before, I would imagine that may not have gone away."

While you can never truly say never until the deadline passes at 12 p.m. PT, the Vancouver Canucks would have an easier time moving Tyler Myers after July 1st, when his no-movement clause shifts to a 12-team no-trade clause, opening up more teams to move the 35-year-old to.
