Canucks add defenceman Tyler Myers to NHL’s COVID-19 protocol

The Vancouver Canucks have added defenceman Tyler Myers to the NHL’s COVID-19 protocol.

Myers joins Tyler Motte, Tucker Poolman, Luke Schenn, Brad Hunt, forward Juho Lammikko and assistant coach Jason King in protocol. Vancouver is in the midst of a six-game winning streak, despite dealing with a short-handed roster in its last two games.

The team also signed defenceman Ashton Sautner to a one-year, two-way contract.

The Canucks next two games against the Toronto Maple Leafs and Arizona Coyotes have been postponed.
