Canucks trade tiers
Thomas Drance of The Athletic: The Vancouver Canucks are still in the playoff race but two weekend losses didn’t help. A look at their trade tiers as the deadline is fast approaching.

Only if the offer is massive – J.T. Miller, Conor Garland, Tyler Motte (not even a low-2nd round), and Luke Schenn.
Complete wild-card tier – Brock Boeser, and Nils Hoglander.
Alex Edler Tier – Jaroslav Halak.
Shedding Cap Commitments – Tyler Myers, Tanner Pearson, Travis Hamonic, Jason Dickinson, and Tucker Poolman.
On Canucks Myers and Motte
David Pagnotta: There has been lots of speculation on Vancouver Canucks defenseman Tyler but there hasn’t been anything serious at this point in time.
Myers does have a full no-trade clause until July 1st and then it will be a 10-team no-trade list.
Taj: Rick Dhaliwal on Canucks defenseman Myers: “Don’t think the Myers camp is impressed with these Myers leaks and rumors.”
Taj: John Shannon said on Sekeres and Price that on Myers: “The other name you’re starting to hear is Tyler Myers. That’s one name in the last 5-6 days that has surfaced.”
Taj: Dhaliwal said that if the Canucks received a top 40 draft pick, they would consider trading forward Tyler Motte.
