Oh well, as much as I don't want us to sign Myers, if he is a Canuck tomorrow, then I'll be rooting for him but man. I want Myers to make me eat $&!# but I doubt I will. What is your expectation though? I thought Myers was going to be overpaid because I thought he was going to be getting 7-8 million with max term even before all the false reports were coming out. At 6 million and 5 years, it is very reasonable for what he should be able to provide considering the UFA market. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if people hated Gudbranson, I wonder how long it takes for them to go after Myers. Lol. Myers is 10x the dman Guddy is. Myers is what guddy was expected to become. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since this has 8 pages I’ll merge it with the existing 72-page Myers thread. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of that is on the coaching carousel in Buffalo as well as the inability to assess that he needed to be sheltered much more. Myers was competent his first year. That's why he won the Calder Cup at 19 y.o. His problem was that what made him a competent d-man was his offence which went down in subsequent years and leveled off. As for his actual defensive play, he'll need to be partnered with someone who can cover for his shortcomings just like Ristolainen needs wherever he ends up. As for the "coaching carousel" you mentioned, he was traded before it really got going. He spent all but about 16 months with only Lindy Ruff as his coach while he was a Sabre. I bolded everything so you would feel right at home reading this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pionk is a decent young dman at a good cost right now. Trouba has been rumoured to be on the outs for sometime and they couldn't afford to keep Myers. Perhaps Myers would've been more inclined to stay had they chosen to move Trouba earlier and gave him a bigger role with the team. Either that or maybe he calls Vancouver home because his wife is from the area, in which case, we need more BC women to start dating/marrying hockey stars.

We may see a Tryamkin / Poldozkin combo coming in in two years. That may be the final push from playoff presence to legitimate contender. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SabreFan1 Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 All of this giddiness and I'm wondering how many trade proposals Myers will be a part of next off-season. You just know it's gonna happen unless he has a great year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
