Iain MacIntyre of Sportsnet: Vancouver Canucks 32-year old pending free agent defenseman wouldn’t waive his no-trade clause ahead of last week’s trade deadline when they asked if he’d consider.
“It was different because there were more things going on that I knew about,” Edler, one game after his return from injury, said Saturday following the Canucks’ practice here for Sunday’s game against the Vegas Golden Knights.
The sides have discussed a contract extension, but some fans are frustrated that Edler could end up leaving for nothing if an extension isn’t worked out.
