@MatthewWGR: Pysyk is better than Myers and I don't think it's close. Pysyk won't play PP but is ahead in smarts, Dzone passing, work, mental toughness

Don't worry, Sbroads will take care of him on twitter

Wouldn't it be Dishonour for Connor?

I'm not going to tell you that Pysyk is better than Myers with a straight face, but I will say that Pysyk absolutely belongs up here. Whether that's Murray's call or Nolan's call, I have no idea. I think it was Sbroads that said that Nolan was pissed when Pysyk was sent back down, so perhaps it is Murray calling all the shots here.

He wants to throw out these advanced stats and such but yet on the worst team in modern history Myers has decent advanced stats considering he plays the most ice time

Take a look at his Twitter feed. Don't know how to link pics but Pysyk has better Fenwick than Myers. Different sample sizes, obviously, but facts are facts.

The Leafs possession numbers are pretty poor. Should they ignore it because they suck? Sounds like you're saying they aren't relative for the Sabres?

@MatthewWGR: Over the last 3 years, only Myers has 11th worst Fenwick % in the NHL. Only Weber is a lower Sabre http://t.co/Jr3YVbIOty

Is there some sort of Stupidity test you must pass to get on WGR?

Jesus christ.

Ok, bring in Mark Pysyk and play him against the toughest opposing forwards and keep him here for more than a few games and see how excellent his Fenwick is.

Not sure why common sense is never used

Is Fenwick the one that takes into account zone starts as well?

They're totally different styles of defensemen.

This!!!

Look Mark Pysyk does make a better pass out of the zone. I'll give him that. This is not a bashing Pysyk post because I think he will be a good 4th/5th guy but Myers is a 2/3 guy who had more skill, better skater, and just to throw it out because it's hockeybuzz when has Pysyk ever punched someone in the face or got suspended for a hit?

Yes... in fact, he'd be a good compliment for Myers in his prime. He stays in position, gets the puck, gets it out. That's his whole bag.
