No, disliking one thing does not mean you automatically like another. I like Benn and Fatburger as 3rd pairing guys. Nothing flashy, decent in limited minutes. Myers is just what he was last year, and the year before and every other year he wasn’t winning the Calder.

...a solid top 4 Dman with size?
Good for 30pts a season?

Could Hall get traded twice in the same season? If the Yotes fall further, would they move fatty as well? Imagine Kessel with Petey and Miller!

Miller would be yelling at Grimace all the time.

You dislike Myers at $6m but are ok with Kessel at 8?

He was forced into a top 4 position due to injuries. His offence won't be close to 30 points this year.

No, an inconsistent third pairing guy who doesn’t intimidate anyone (with his size, because he’s soft as butter) and can get you some points with sheltered 5v5 and PP time.

No, just stirring the pot

Also, I wonder if we will here rumors of Hall or Kessel to Vancouver on Vancouver sports radio tomorrow...

Meh...he's on pace for around 25pts or so.

Agree to disagree.
I've seen him use that size and reach one on one effectively.
He's 2nd in goals from D (which we sorely lacked last year).
He's a massive improvement over the likes of Hutton, Sbisa, MDZ and even Benn who some on here were saying was just as good at 1/3 the price

I was happy with it then and am happy now.
Has been just what we needed, a steady Dman with size.
Of course he'll probably slow down near the end of the term, but i think he's helped improve the backend a lot this year.
That and Hughes.

Still hope we make some adjustments in the off season.

Agree with all of this, Myers has really helped out, not only does he have massive reach with his stick but he also adds a different dimension to the offensive side. Only issue is if no one backs him up the defense will get burned.

Yes I did, and it was nice to see. Let’s see them do that on a consistent basis and then I’ll start believing.

Just wondering, I agree with the consistent part, but last night was better.

I did notice that there were about 6-7 chances for open ice hits that the Canucks shied away from, I'm not talking taking someones head off, but if there is the opportunity to nail a guy in the neutral zone (shoulder to shoulder) take it, send him flying.

Now they start that and then they will be given more respect from other teams.

Criticism of the team is not widely accepted in here.

Most of the team sucks. That’s what fat posters like lefty don’t understand. That’s why they take shortcuts

Myers is NOT SOFT. He (frank)s guys up with the cross checks. He ain’t much of a fighter but he is our most physical D

You really aren't a fan of the Canucks with proposals like that. Kessel is right where he belongs, and I hope he rots there and brings the coyotes with him...same as that team jinx Hall.

Didn’t someone say that Hall’s signing with Calgary? That would be something.

There is so much Sedin talk on Sports radio that I started to listening to the Christian music channel.

Yup.
He's been solid.

Remember when everyone was hating on his signing?
Haven't heard much of late
