You want to keep John Scott on the roster?


And here I thought you were better than that......

Guess that's what thought did cause that POS has zero business in the AHL let alone the NHL.

Can't skate
Can't pass
Can't shoot

Sh!t he can't play hockey. It's ok, sh!t I can't swim.... I know I can't. So you what know I do?....... I stay my black ass out the pool.


(waits to see who gets that reference?)

Can't believe it took longer than "60 seconds" for someone to get that reference...

You are so wrong , Defensemen take development . Myers has rounded the corner in his development . The only player we would move him for on your roster is Hall . Myer's can now take over games and has . Hall injury history is starting to get scary
- Maximum Signal



He played 77 games this year.
Top 3 in ppg, and the second year in a row hes been top ten in scoring. And is barely 22.
Hasn't Myers also had an extended injury in the past?
Eithet way; the whole inury thing with hall is so tired. Its typical hockeybuzz wisdom.

You said it yourself; dmen take time. So you're admitting hall is in another class right now but might not be in future?
thats reasonable id say.

But if u think Myers is currently on the same level after 2+ seasons of mediocrity or worse (started to turn it around this season abit) you either dont know a thing about hall, or take homerism too far

Did I say he was at the same level as Hall ? No . What I said he has rounded the corner and has the ability to take over games . If you dislike Myers so much . Why do want him ? Because he is starting to show what he is capable of . Another year with Nolan and he will be getting all star consideration . Hockey Canada sees it . He was asked to be on Team Canada last world championships . Was Hall asked and turned them down ?

Seth Jones hasn't missed a beat either since coming into the league. As good as MacKinnon was, he was greatly helped by the team around him.

Has he taken over games the way Mackinnon has ?

Unless TM is bowled over by a deal, I doubt Myers goes anywhere. I know you deal from a position of strength (and if they deal a D, hopefully, imo, it's Ehrhoff), but this team is poised to have one of the best D corps in the league here in a few years.

Not thinking hes on the same level as hall is vastly different than hating him.

Hall has played on team canada already. And of course he said no. Were u under the impression hes not there cause hes not good enough??!!
Look around the league, hes one of the top few left wingers in the world. Already.
And this is hardly debateable.

I want myers cause his potential vs asking price due to contract and a few bad years should be worth the package. and I think edm is at a stage where they need nhlers more than high picks

No Thanks . We have been through the pain with growth of Myers as a player . Time for us to reap the Benefits . His contract is not that bad when you look at what top line defensemen are now getting. I estimate Subban will get 7 to 8 million . 5 and 1/2 does not look that bad in lew of that . We already have a ton of draft picks stock piled over the next few drafts . Only player I would trade staight up for on Edmonton would be Hall at this point. Murray has said no one is untouchable but a few including Myers it would take and overpayment to get. Have to start your rebuild somewhere and he is one that will be built around.
