If they can offload Myers and 1+2 of their lineup bloat (Garland/Hog/Pearson/Dickinson) and get Severson & Klingberg on the backend...that's a very good bump up to respectable D.

 

 

Rumour has it that Myers refused to waive not long ago, so offloading him will be pretty tough.

His list of 10 should have been submitted July 1, 2022.  So is the rumour we made a trade, knowing the list in place, to one of those 10 teams and then went to Myers and asked him if he would waive?

This feels a lot stronger than respectable.  I would have to think that would be one of the top D groups in the league.  We have a #1 D in Hughes and #2 D in OEL and we'd be adding two more #2 D's in Klingberg and Severson.  Basically gives us two top pairs and a third pair.  We'd be in amazing shape if we could pull that off:

 

Hughes Severson

OEL Klingberg

Rathbone Schenn

Extras: Dermott Poolman

That would be awesome, although assuming Miller is moved for Severson, I think we'd need to find a proper 3C as well.

 

Also someone would need to wake JR up from his nap.

he doesn't have a full NTC anymore, Canucks can trade him to 21 teams without having to ask him to waive as he only has a 10 team NTC now.

The way the market is atm, moving him will still pose a challenge to any of those 21 teams unless PA is willing to part with a sweetener, which it doesn't seem like they're willing to do. May as well keep him at that point.

If I were Jim Rutherford I would do it quick and dirty: I would attach a 2nd round pick to Tyler Myers and send him to the Arizona Coyotes. The Yotes are the right partner to get this done. They love to add draft picks and VAN love to create cap space. I don't want to watch the Giraffe two more seasons in a Canucks jersey.

 

 

There's no way Arizona is one of the 21 teams Tymy would wanna go to

It quite likely would have to be a cap in/cap out kind of trade I’d think…

Dallas Stars

Right-handed defenseman: With all due respect to Colin Miller, the right-shot defenseman the Stars signed in free agency, the gaping hole left by John Klingberg on the right side remains. Just because it’s a swap by position doesn’t change the fact the Stars traded a top-pairing talent for a third-pairing talent. Klingberg remains unsigned, though. Could the market be so bad that Klingberg falls back to Dallas? The Stars still have $11.4 million in cap space but re-signing Jason Robertson and Jake Oettinger should take care of that. Management essentially bid Klingberg farewell last week. There’s probably a 99 percent chance Klingberg is gone … but that 1 percent remains until he inks a deal elsewhere. — Saad Yousuf

Montreal Canadiens

Right-shot defenseman: Having traded Jeff Petry to the Penguins for Mike Matheson, who has played almost exclusively on the left side, the Canadiens only have David Savard and Chris Wideman as experienced options on the right side. General manager Kent Hughes has repeatedly said he does not want to put his young defensemen in a position where they have to take on more responsibility than they can handle. If he wants to avoid doing that to Justin Barron, Hughes needs to find someone who can take on some minutes on the right side in the top four. — Arpon Basu

Anaheim Ducks

Defensemen, defensemen, defensemen: The Ducks bolstered their top two lines by signing Ryan Strome and Frank Vatrano. But they’ve yet to address another thin area on their blue line. There is Cam Fowler, Jamie Drysdale, Kevin Shattenkirk and … and … you get the picture here. Some stopgap options are still available in free agency, but the crop falls off dramatically after John Klingberg. Good prospects are in the system, but it’s a huge leap for one or two of them to make right now. You wonder if a trade is in the offing. Jakob Chychrun has long been a possibility, and Samuel Girard could be in play if Colorado retains Nazem Kadri. Even an over-salaried Marcus Pettersson would help get the Ducks to the cap floor. — Eric Stephens

Lol klingsberg is a defensive disaster the last 3 season. I’d gladly keep Myers for 2 years before putting 5-6 years at 7+ for klingsberg. If OEL can’t get any PP time what makes u think klingsberg will get any? The canucks have insane amount of forward in their top 9 their Pp2 barely get any minute to begin with. They’ll continue running 4 forwards on both PP so why are people obsess with getting a klingsberg who can’t play defense? He’s -28 for a reason.. the next defenseman is -4 so no it’s not his defensive partner that’s the problem. He ain’t gonna get the QH offensive opportunity and he can’t play defense. So why do we want klingsberg? Try to fit another square peg into a round hole? We need a RHD that is defensively responsible so OEL can be activated if paired.. not another offensively minded defenseman.. that’ll hampered his partner..

Edit: Thought Klingberg was Chychrun there for a second. f! Good morning!

Not really an issue if they really wanted to move him.  It's an NTC -  they can just waive him and have an agreement where that team picks him off waivers.

 

It's apparently how Tampa got McDonagh to waive per Kyprios.  They apparently had an agreement with CBJ that if they couldn't find another trade that they'll waive him with CBJ then picking him up.

can a player be put on waivers at any time during the offseason for a move like this?
