Canucks decline. Once Myers bonus is paid, he can be easily dumped on a team like Anaheim or Arizona that wants cheap his high cap hit with low salary to help them reach the floor. Cost could be anywhere from future considerations to a late round pick (4th at most). Not only that, but the Canucks won't pay to dump Myers, they've been clear that they view him as a positive asset and won't move him without getting value back.
Boeser not having many suitors at the TDL most likely comes down to the fact that only 8 teams could afford him without sending equal or more salary back, and pretty much all those teams were rebuilders like Arizona and Chicago who wouldn't want Boeser. He should be easier to move in the offseason when teams have cap space, and the Canucks can retain a bit to increase his value as well.
