General Manager Jim Neal announced they acquired veteran defenseman Tyler Myers from the Vancouver Canucks. In return, Dallas sent their second round pick in 2027 and fourth round pick in 2029.

What significant trade did the Dallas Stars make recently?

Vancouver is also keeping half of Myers' salary for the rest of his deal. Neal praised Myers as a seasoned player who will strengthen the blue line right away. He brings valuable flexibility, especially playing on the right side, which gives the Stars more options on defense. This season, the 36-year-old Myers has eight points in 57 games with Vancouver.

Who is Tyler Myers and what does he bring to the Dallas Stars?

He ranks high in ice time at over 20 minutes per game and leads in penalty kill minutes. Over a 17-year career, Myers has 403 points in 1,123 regular season games across Winnipeg, Buffalo, and Vancouver. He has solid playoff experience, too, with 16 points in 61 games. Born in Houston, Myers will be the first Texas-born player to suit up for the Stars in a regular season game. The 6'8 defenseman was picked 12th overall by Buffalo in the 2008 draft.
