Tallon tells Sportsnet that he's at 80 per cent to keeping the pick.

Yeah, I am appalled that Schopp can't recognize the shear potential of Myers. Seriously, he has all the tools and a world of talent. Why would anyone trade that for a second round pick?

I honestly can not even fathom an answer for stupidity on that level.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Pronger

In his third season with St. Louis and first as team captain following the departure of Brett Hull as a free agent, Pronger was again named to the All-Star team.


That means he was previously an all star.

Yep.


Did Myers make strides last season under Nolan?

Yep

Is Myers comparable to Pronger?

Not even close.

Jared Spurgeon is the same age as myers and has similar PPG numbers as myers and a much better +/-


Jared Spurgeon



until Myers plays in a few all star games, he should never be in the same sentence as a HOF'er

Yes and Myers has not yet for us and maybe never will. That said, I do not want Myers traded. He has turned a corner and this season is his to prove it. If beyond this season he fails to do that then trade him.

That question needs filed right next to " What is our purpose in life?" in the great file cabinet of unanswerable things.
