Staying on the west coast probably works as he would remain close to LA (family reasons) and Canucks would actually offer potential playing time. Could have a chip on his shoulder which is never a bad thing. He lives in PEI, that being said unless hes done playing I dont see him caring where he goes as long as hes going somewhere.

Monty Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 And what about 8 bad years? 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kobayashi Maru Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 So here's a question. Assuming we stabilize our top 6 D with Myers, Joulevi and potentially others this year, who would you rather have as the 7D at 1 year 1 million: Schenn or Phaneuf?

Biega's energy is great and all, but I think I take Schenn or Phaneuf over Biega. Rafferty/Teves etc won't be the 7th as they need to develop and that will likely be in Utica. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primal Optimist Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 In the very early 2000's I worked with a guy who was formerly a Peterborough Pete, but had hockey career ending knee issues and so ended up with the feds...he was really young then, but not a teenager..for some reason he had playing knowledge of Dion "Phagoof" even back then and hated the guy. I wonder what beef they had then? He was convinced Dion was asshole enough to make and succeed in the NHL but not nearly a good enough player to deserve to do so. hahahaha I assumed he was butthurt at the time, but now i tend to agree with his assessment.

Edler - Stecher Hughes - Tanev* Juolevi - Biega Schenn *Sautner called up when Tanev goes down, he plays with Edler and Stech with Quinn Don't want Myers, nor Phaneuf. Nor Gardiner. Would love Colin Miller, but that doesn't look likely right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would like to see Biega as part of the regular top 6? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biega, Sautner, Jordan Subban or Lukas Krajicek - this Myers deal is going to kill Benning's successor's cap manoeuvrability. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that is our top 6 to start the year the off season was a complete failure for JB as he stated he was going to rebuild the defense. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much better that than adding Myers at 7x7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We aren’t going to be any better for it. Does Myers on a reasonable contract make the defense better? Yes. It does. 7mil for 7 years? No thank you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's one of two big name D on the market and he's going to make it rain dollar. 7x7 might be the best we could hope for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I was saying - Myers is okay for 2-3 years on $4m-$5m, but anything longer term or higher AAV and he's hamstringing both himself and his successor. I'd rather see Quinn play his off side than see Myers on our team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
