Myers helps the tank, can get us an asset for taking his contract, and he only has one year left. Do it Mike.
He’s fine playing 15-17 min a game. He would still get 3 million the open market.He is terrible and was named our tank commander for a reason. He’s barely a bottom pairing defenceman now.
Yeah. I’d take him with zero retention as well.Myers helps the tank, can get us an asset for taking his contract, and he only has one year left. Do it Mike.
I'd consider it straight up, but we've hemorrhaged picks already moving cap hits out.I wonder if there wouldn't be a market for Myers to Montreal once Edmundson is moved, for Dvorak, who seems to fill a need in Vancouver.
Myers+3d rounder for Dvorak?
I suspect Vancouver wants to make sure they can sign a RHD firstHe’d be EK replacement after bonus is paid. It’s contingent on EK being traded
He has a 10 team no trade list. We can find someone else to take him if needed. But dumping him isn't needed, at least not yet.I doubt he’d waive his nmc he lives in Kelowna and SJ is dumpster fire right now.
We’re probably stuck with him.
Does he totally stink? Resounding yesIs he a little overpaid? Yes
Do you overpay for RHD with size? Yes
Is he a legit NHL Defenseman? Yes
Myers can play second pairing with a better partner, he just can't carry the 2nd pairing.
Canucks should be willing to commit corporate fraud to surreptitiously remove that from his contractWouldn't his NTC also be a potential issue?
That trade was when the Sharks were still good and would've made them worse, which we didn't want. This one is when the Sharks are bad and would make us worse, which we do want.I'm still laughing that this trade is even being discussed. Gives me 'nam flashbacks when the rumored Bieksa to SJ trade was supposed to go down years and years and years ago that thankfully never did. Hopefully this one is the same.
he means EK replacement in terms of minutes. When the Sharks trade EK they dont want to put young guys into roles they cant handle. You take the cap dump, the assets along with it, and have Myers play 20+ a night and accept youre going to lose gamesHe would not be an EK replacement in ANY way.
Again, I do not believe this would be a dump move. Grier would be giving up assets, which we don't want.That trade was when the Sharks were still good and would've made them worse, which we didn't want. This one is when the Sharks are bad and would make us worse, which we do want.
OEL carried him in his first year with Vancouver. Myers is a tire fire that is always the worst D man on his pairing...Is he a little overpaid? Yes

Is he a legit NHL Defenseman? Yes

Edmundson is likely a 2nd at 50%. He'll fetch that at the deadline, though that forces a lot of kids to play lesser roles until then.I'd consider it straight up, but we've hemorrhaged picks already moving cap hits out.
What's the cost on Edmundson though? Or Savard. For that matter?
after his bonus is paid he's an asset. artifical cap hit at low owed moneyIn my opinion this is what a Myers trade would like like.
Now- Myers and 3rd 2024 to Sj for futures ( Sj can flip him for a 2nd or 3rd rounder at TDL)
September- Myers and 6th 2024 to Sj fo for Futures ( Sj can flip him for a 2nd or 3rd rounder at TDL)
Trade Deadline- Canucks get a 2nd or 3rd rounder
after his bonus is paid he's an asset. artifical cap hit at low owed money
as hes rhd, big, and can skate some gm will get crazy and go above and beyond a 2nd at tdl
