Myers is a legit #4 dman, but guys earning 6 million need to be top calibre and so we’d likely be hard pressed in getting Seattle to take him off our hands. He's a third pairing guy on a contender with a bird brain. I'm being very generous. Edited February 11, 2021 by FlyLow_ 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad_BOI_pete Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 every unprotected rfa/ufa player in the league unsigned is available to seattle during their exclusive 48 hour window pre-draft. saying this now seattle has a huge advantage over other team's in the reinhart sweepstakes. they have potential to make some crazy trades with exclusive access to every unprotected player in the league. heck we could and should be making deals with seattle for these players too. seattle will know which players are available before the lists are even submitted. we can potentially trade up by exposing schmidt/myers and trading for a player they have access to. you could make a trade pre-final exposure list with future conditions in place that ensured everyone played fairly other scenarios would be exposing schmidt/myers as long as they trade for roussel(maybe with retained salary) I would be all about exposing one of these 2 get rid of a bad contract. If I was Benning I would be sending mega welcoming baskets to Seattle's GM, and following up with some serious trade talks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Team didn't start getting soft until some point in the WCE era, and even that team was still miles ahead of where it is now. It's the way things are now. Connected, hate between clubs came back a little this year which was nice to see... as far as Myers goes he is what he is, part of the solution (we need more grit ty guys that can take tough minutes not less). Not going to debate a pre-covid contract that is right on par with those signed after covid for RHDs getting their legacy deals. Do tell what teams were the exceptions? Late 2000's and on only really. And that's a league wide trend. The 80's teams were loaded with pugilists, the 70's well maybe a few years sprinkled in where we couldn't match up but not many, and the 90's had our toughest teams ever (late ones in particular but all of them really).

Lol I never understood why people thought he would. Before he played his first game in the NHL he kept saying he wants to play in the NHL then a year later he bolts to Russia.

DefCon1 Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 letting go of myers opens up 6 million in cap space to put forward for a morr reliable D. Think of a D from Tampa or Carolina. Maybe we could get a great D through a trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So maybe best to trade myers to carolina so we get an upgrade. we would throw in some pick or prospect anf guarantee myers would not be picked.

goblix Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 On 2/9/2021 at 2:28 PM, Elias Pettersson said: I believe Myers has to be exposed in order for the Canucks to meet the ED eligibility rules for games played by a defenceman... Not sure if anyone corrected you yet... but Bowey is on contract and meets the eligibility requirements. Realistically the only player worth protecting is Schmidt... I think Myers is far more useful than what CDC makes him out to be but his contract is a tad to long and that 6m is a bit too much. Here's hoping GMJB can target some useful young defenders that are on the exposed list and find a way to snag them up. I'd definitely use some draft capital this year for that. However I kinda want Kent Johnson in the draft if he's available at the 9-11 range. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wallstreetamigo Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 Myers is not going to be exposed in the expansion draft. Even if he was, no way Seattle takes on that term at that cap hit without being paid to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not exactly a trophy, but a replica pair of Pratt’s infamous leather pants. Myers gets to wear them all summer. Might give him the chance to finally earn that “Big Sexy” nickname.
