The Vancouver Canucks have asked defenceman Tyler Myers to consider a trade option, according to TSN Hockey Insider Darren Dreger.
Rick is correct. The Canucks have a trade option they’ve asked Myers to consider. He has protection and is taking his time to consider. I’m told it was presented two days ago. The veteran and his agent, J.P Barry continue to deliberate. https://t.co/RnUemEcDfX

Dreger reports that the offer was presented to Myers, who has trade protection, and his agent J.P. Barry two days ago and they continue to deliberate.
TSN Hockey Insider Chris Johnston adds that Myers currently holds a full no-movement clause, which converts to a 12-team no-trade list this summer.
Of note in this situation is the fact that Tyler Myers currently holds a full NMC, which converts to a 12-team no-trade list this summer. So, there’s an element of pressure lingering in the background as Myers weighs his options. https://t.co/8gywTG48QX
