Rumor: Leafs Interested in Tyler Myers #61

[FerrisRox]

Schenn makes to much sense for the leafs to trade for him. They are looking not to spend big this TDL and they could probably get Schenn at 50% for a 3rd..

You're going to be in for a big surprise if you think Schenn is going to go for a third rounder.

And why on earth would anyone need retention with Schenn?

I like it for the Leafs

 

[AvroArrow]

Sorry guys, false alarm, Dubas has said Knies and Toronto's 1st are out of play. There is no other trade that can be made!

/s

Imagine thinking Myers can land you Knies lmao

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

Why you don't need to trade a 1st or a top prospect? No way Garland has that low a value when Canucks traded 9th overall for him unless you think that 9th overall was for OEL. Garland has a good contract and is definitely the hardest working player on our team. Maybe with Rick he will put up more points now but even when he wasn't putting up points, he was hustling. I rather Canucks trade Boeser and his higher cap hit than Garland.


I would trade Myers for future consideration just to get rid of that cap hit.

I think Vancouver did think OEL was the main piece, they were very very very VERY wrong but at the time of the trade I think Vancouver thought OEL was the main piece

Schenn being extremely overpriced in the market is probably why Leafs might be pivoting to Tyler Myers (assuming the rumor is true).

Due to everything that's been already said about Myers in here...he can probably be had for really cheap. Because I think Vancouver wants to just get rid of him. Maybe dubas is seeing him a buy-low candidate? Only justification I can think of

Imagine thinking Myers can land you Knies lmao

Did you not see the sarcasm note at the end of the post bruh

 

[Ianturnedbull]

I think both Leaf fans and Canuck fans need to grow up here.

Is Myers an NHLer? Yes right?

Can he help Toronto in a 3rd pairing roll with a better defensive system, and with more dedicated players playing defensively? Yes right?

Yeah Myers has lost a step, but this might work out. Vancouver can get a prospect or a pick, and VAN can retain a little.

The risk might be there for Toronto.

 

[Hierso]

Top 6 winger should be the top of the list. Also for bottom 6 players I'd rather target barbashev or Acciari over Lafferty. Lafferty and Erne are good 4th line targets.


If schenn costs a 3rd + ok prospect I'd be fine with that.

Schenn for a 3'rd + prospect sounds fine.

You're going to be in for a big surprise if you think Schenn is going to go for a third rounder.

And why on earth would anyone need retention with Schenn?

I didn't see the caphit (I don't follow vancouver all that much) but i don't see him going beyond a 2nd round pick or later pick + prospect.

 

[Cogburn]

Myers does not get you a 1st unless you are sending a 2nd, 3rd and A prospect

that 6 mill cap hit is hard to like with how he has been playing

So you don't know that the /s is meant to denote sarcasm. That's my take away here.

Imagine thinking Myers can land you Knies lmao

My god there are two of them.

 

[elitepete]

Would the Leafs have interest in Myers 50% retained?

 

[dirtydanglez]

Would the Leafs have interest in Myers 50% retained?

not sure he draws much interest even at 50% off.

 

[elitepete]

Not surprised. He’s ass.

And he wants a 50% retention to boot lol. Schenn with 50% retention is an easy 1st round pick return. 400K dman that can also play top 4 in a pinch, hits like a Mack truck, blocks shots and can fight too.

 

[jackjohnson]

I don’t see the Nucks retaining on schenn given his salary. We’ll be looking for a 2nd and if can’t get it at least a 3rd + prospect or we re-sign him.

Vancouver will just re-sign him in the offseason for the 3rd time. We know Schenn will comeback to Vancouver so just rent him out to a team for a couple of months and get him back.

 

[Boxscore]

Myers would be a nice fit on the Leafs. He doesn't warrant a return of Knies though.

 

[TheGreenTBer]

Hes a dynamic defender: Former First round pick, Calder winner, large neck, really tall, chaotically similar to a giraffe, calder winner, etc..

If you combined myers's neck with matthews' nostrils and forehead you might get an alien

 

[Jumptheshark]

So you don't know that the /s is meant to denote sarcasm. That's my take away here.


My god there are two of them.

Myers at 6mill is not worth it

C'mon, he's not a top 4 on the Canucks and look at the dog shit he plays behind. That's never going to be a consideration on a playoff team.

 

[Man Bear Pig]

Scouting report: He’s really tall!

Its mostly neck though

 

[Srsly]

I could see interest in him as a buy low candidate if the Canucks are willing to retain. He used to be good and it seems unlikely he fell off a cliff that quickly when the entire team is struggling as well. That said they don’t have the cap space for him and I don’t see them willing to part with any impressive assets so I doubt Canucks fans would like the return.

 

[tilly123123]

We need him for the tank. Necks season tho ….

 

[TMLife17]

Zero chance he's better then Brodie and Liljegren. And management lovessss Holl (who has been playing great this season) so no he does not crack the Leafs' top 6 on the right side.

 

[darrylsittler27]

The Leafs will be interested on a lot of things at the right price. Any guy they get will barely make top 6. Reilly, Brodie, Gio, Lily , Sandin and now Timmins plus Holl and Benn. Schenn barely makes that top 6 and Myers if sitting on the bench unless there is an injury. The Leafs call n Schenn, price is too high. Canucks counter how would like Myers? Im meh on both.

 

[innitfam]

Those 2 assets are off the table for a rental, not for any player in general

I'm sure if we're discussing Meier/Chychrun those are available

Leafs can't afford to re-sign Meier

 

[jackjohnson]

I like it for the Leafs

Me too, I even give up a pick with Myers just so Myers can sabotage Leaf's playoffs with his give aways and zero offense lol

we dont even care about a pick or prospect

literally just take him and we are happy
