kenhodgejr Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 I think Jim Benning needs to go. He has messed this team up with bad contracts. 1 1 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, maybe Myers is taking his share of penalties (and possibly suspension) at the moment, but he is exactly the type of player this team needs. He’s not afraid to push back and does intimidate. If Petey or Hughes gets mugged / cheap shotted, we have too few who might do something about it. You know Myers would step up. Besides, watching him punch Tkuchuk in the chops the other night was worth more than what we’re paying him. 6 2 6 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe if the rest of the team would do their part, he wouldnt need to goon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post 10pavelbure96 Posted January 22, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 22, 2021 Are you implying that jimbo signed Luongo to that contract lol?

Toyotasfan Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 I don’t know if this team could survive without Myers, who would step up besides little Hughes to protect a teammate? At least the Canadian division isn’t too rough . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24K PureCool Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 JB has nothing to do with Lu. Myers, overpaid yes, is the least of our issues. Erickson is all on JB. Everyone one else people bi*ch about have their contracts expiring this and next year so not really handcuffing the prime of the core. Had he signed Tanev and Marky to their new contracts than that is truly handcuffing this core. Swallow this unusual season and hope to get that last high picks needed to push this team over the top. The future is still bright. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Provost Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 He will get probably get exposed during expansion and not taken. That is all you need to know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

10pavelbure96 Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Nice no suspension I love the physicality Myers brings. Hes been our best dman this season which is great for Myers but not good for the Canucks. However I'm glad hes on our team. As many have said hes the least of our problems 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine being such a bitter person to choose that as your user name. Myers was a beast in the playoffs and fills a lot of needs. The least of our worries. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeremyCuddles Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Eh, I was worried about giving him 6 years. But I don't think there's anything particularly terrible about his game. If not for the stagnant cap there'd be teams that'd want him and take his full cap. He had a truly terrible game last night. Name a player that didn't.

204CanucksFan Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Eriksson has earned the grief he gets on here but to suggest Myers has is comical. He has had some bad nights but he brings something to the team we just don't have without him. I'd still really like to see him paired with Hughes. Last season when they were together they had the best advanced stats of any pairing, they actually elevated each others games, which is saying something when he is elevating Hughes. Depending on Chatfield's condition tomorrow go with: Hughes - Myers Juolevi - Schmidt Rathbone - Rafferty / Chatfield Obviously not ideal and still super young and inexperienced but can't be much worse than last night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post D.B Cooper Posted January 23, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 23, 2021 The posts in this thread are a shame. Have we all forgotten what a beast Myers was in the playoffs? Have we put any thought into what a bunch of kittens this team is without him? Who else has ANY intimidation factor? Who else has a fairly constant mean streak? Anyone else effective at clearing the crease? He had a bad run in with some refs who wanted all the attention on themselves instead of the game. It happens. I hope he keeps it up. If we aren’t scoring or winning, we might as well be smashing. 1 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
