I’m sure they do. The real question may be - Does Aquaman want to pay the $5 million bonus?
Historically, ownership has shown that they are willing to pay, and overpay, in order to try and reach, or go over, the cap ceiling.
Given that the Canucks continue to flounder, Covid financial losses, no playoff revenue, that sellouts are a thing of the past, his divorce and abuse allegations, etc., perhaps he would rather just ditch the contract instead of paying that bonus in the hopes of getting an extra 3rd round draft pick (or whatever the extra return may be).
In the end, it may be the only option to trade Myers, but if a trade comes along that allows the Canucks to deal him prior to the bonus payout, I wouldn’t be surprised if they pulled the trigger.
