Myers scored his goal against Alexandar Georgiev with under 40 seconds remaining in the first period. He would later add an assist on Matthew Highmore's goal near the end of the second period. Overall this season, the veteran defenseman has tallied one goal (Sunday's) and 13 points across 54 games played.

Juho Lammikko, Brad Hunt, Tyler Motte and Tucker Poolman were also on the ice Sunday after being removed from the COVID-19 protocol list. 

Myers is one of six Vancouver players currently in the COVID-19 protocol. The Canucks are scheduled to play against Toronto on Saturday. The Maple Leafs will also be missing players due to COVID-19.

Myers has a $6 million cap hit in each of the next three seasons and probably wouldn't have been viewed as a much of an option for the Kraken. Brock Boeser, Jason Dickinson, Bo Horvat, J.T. Miller, Tyler Motte, Tanner Pearson, Elias Pettersson, Olli Juolevi, Nate Schmidt and Thatcher Demko were also protected by the Canucks.
