Yeah, resigining with the jets is really all I have heard too. Can't find a single other report that he has talked to another team. Everything on twitter and google is just Vancouver. Just wondering if this is Ryan Miller 2.0 where we over pay for someone noone else was interested in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only question is is it teams that he actually has interest in himself Or is Vancouver his only real destination of choice. I had no problem with the Miller signing. We needed a stable presence in net and I thought he was a great mentor to Markstrom and some of the young guys. If Myers can take a guy like Tryamkin under his wing and mentor him it could have another positive impact for the future.

I just recall the media saying we overpaid as there wasn't really other teams interested. Just wondering if this is a similar situation because I haven't heard anything about anyone other than the jets having interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babalu Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 This tweet also made me think the Canucks might be the only serious player for Myers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I've been surprised at how quiet it has been around the league in general. There's alot of decent free agents going to market on Monday and there's only a handful of rumors going around.

DownUndaCanuck Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 In the ideal world we snag Myers, Nemeth and keep Schenn, lose Hutton. Gain size and gritt and scoring ability on the blueline and protect the small guys like Stecher and Hughes and Juolevi (who plays small at the moment). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hlinkas wrister Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 I wouldn't mind Myers here but he's no more than a second pairing D-man at best. 6M x 5 is the max I would pay (and term) or I would walk away from the deal. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoosh Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 Strange that no semi-accurate destinations have been tweeted or confirmed somewhere. Last year we knew we’d sign Roussell and Beagle way before July 1st. Same with Schaller. Just got the confirmation on July 1st. If I recall correctly, same thing with Loui Eriksson the year before. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well if you trust Dhaliwal we will have a legit shot at landing both Myers and Nyquist. Take it for what it's worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want Myers added to our D corps as well but anything above 6 is really an over payment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to remember these guys are propaganda puppets for the teams and the agents. Their inside information is all too often only intended as deflection from the the truth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know how they lose both Trouba and Myers and expect to be competitive, particularly if Buff is starting to break down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like Myers’ wife wants to be closer to her home in Kelowna. I don’t think he’s going back to Winterpig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah could be. But 7.5 mil per year makes even Winnipeg bearable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
