Decent chance Rathbone as well. I'd expect Tampa automatically gets the pick. Current value always trumps future. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maketherightmove Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 2 minutes ago, oldnews said: I'm really surprised that Myers took all these terms 1) 6 million imo leaves potential frenzy money on the table. That is a mere 500k uptick on his previous market value. 2) 5 years term - again, probably could have milked more out of his free agent leverage, particularly as arguably the best D available. 3) Also willing to be exposed in the expansion draft. That part is a bit shocking considering 1 and 2. It looks like he really wants to be here. I'd love to know Green's thoughts on this signing - I think it's very unlikely that he doesn't approve - so it will be interesting to hear him comment on it. He quite clearly took a reasonable deal because he wants to be in Vancouver and believes this team is on the path to success, so he acted unselfishly. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good for him to go against the Leaf puppets I turned TSN off and switched to Sportsnet. Burkie > Ferraro. 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there are some guys who look ahead and think "how much money do I want in the bank when I'm 35 and ready to retire?" Then they figure out the best place for them to play and still fulfill that financial goal. The surplus dollars are less important for guys of this mindset. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gnarcore Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 This deal says to me Myers wants to be here and wants to win. He gave flexibility to the team to ensure we can continue along the path. JB might have just earned his extension. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to like him, but over the years I’ve gotten really sick of unbearable negativity towards our team. I remember a year or two ago he said that Detroit had much better young players than us and were much further along in their rebuild lol. Now listening to him on the TSN panel crapping all over this signing and our club was just ridiculous. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elvis15 Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 The only problem with updating a rumour thread is trying to find the posts from when it changed to a report! I'll see if I can find the details of the signing beyond the obvious 5 years. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winter Soldier Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Much less money than the internet was convinced he was gonna get from us. Immediate upgrade on the backend that is more meaningful than some will give him credit for. The ability to leave him exposed in the expansion draft. Great deal.
