Myers said a big problem was the pressure he felt. If he's feeling pressure in buffalo, imagine a market like Edmonton. Ask some fans what they think of Yak after a bad season. It's no wonder he hasn't been on twitter since 2013.

What scares me on Myers is if he were to come to edmonton, he's not gonna have an erhoff on his left side. He will have ference or Marincin. Unless we can ink Markov to play on the top pair, I'm hesitant on Myers

That being said, it doesn't take into account him taking a step forward.

He was never paired with Ehrhoff. He was paired with the dynamic duo of AHL defensemen Henrik Tallinder and Mike Weber

One of whom just so happens to provide Myers with seemingly endless confidence.

Really? I would've figured with the minutes played they would've been paired.

Edit: so was Myers playing second toughest comp?

Myers was also given the toughest defensive responsibilities on the team posting a low 41% Offensive zone start percentage compared to 48% for Ehrhoff

I think that's exaggerated.


The whole Sabres team was a train wreck. Myers was a bright spot, with or without Tallinder

Murray scares me. None of these guys are his picks.

IMO though, I can't see Ehrhoff staying, and I can't see moving both Ehrhoff and Myers

It's a mighty big coincidence if not. Maybe he's just a calming presence in the locker room, but there's gotta be something he brings that helps Myers feel comfortable when both of his "good seasons" were with him around.

Id say more like Risto or Zadorov would be on the block for someone of similar age.

I think a pure coincidence is most likely. All those things you mentioned are 'intangibles', and there are zero stats that show those qualities are relevant to wins or losses , puck Possesion or really any other facet if the game.

This is kinda what I thought the consensus was. Especially after taking them both so high and bein in a rebuild.

Because theyre so desperate for forwards

In this scenario;

Myers
Ehrhoff
Pysyk
Ristolainen
Zadarov
Mccabe
Ekblad

Mcbain
Weber


While theyre best forward might be cody hodgson.
Somethings gotta give
