“My understanding was that the deal on the table was Tyler Myers straight up for Kevin Labanc,” Seravalli told Canucks Central.
For the Canucks, Labanc has a $4.725 million AAV for one more year, compared to Myers’s $6 million AAV for one more year.
That’s a $1.275 million savings on the cap for a Vancouver franchise looking to get back into the playoffs.
