Confirmed with Link: Ryan Ellis traded to PHI. Preds get Myers from PHI and Glass from VGK

[jumb0]

But you traded a guy that was the #2OA pick in that same draft that's clearly much better now and has a much higher ceiling. Patrick's first two seasons he had more goals than Glass' career high in points. Zero suggest Glass is better now or even close, and even less supports he has a higher ceiling. Patrick has been much better in the league while having legit injury excuses that he appears to be finally getting over.

Patrick also played more NHL games in his rookie year than Glass has played total so you can’t ignore the sample size.

time to shit can Forsberg and Ekholm too … Josi as well

burn the whole thing down . tired of the good ol boys club in the locker room

Do you really think we should trade our 3 best remaining players?

Yeah. Let’s not do that.

 

[EXTRAS]

Trading Patrick for Glass was smart. Patricks concussion history is a time bomb. And it's not like his 10 points in 50 games last season is mind blowing.

 

[Armourboy]

Vegas current centers are really really bad.....

Can't be that bad to continue to do as well as they have done.

I wonder if Poile has one eye on Weber with some of these moves as well..

Eye see what you did there

 

[BigFatCat999]

I bet his eye twitches when he hears the word 'Weber'

 

[Danko]

I’ll just say that Myers has a ton of potential and he is the part of this trade that I think a lot of flyers fans cringed a little when they heard he was moved but he had a tough year last year as did most of the teams younger guys.

I think it probably ends up being a good trade for both teams. The shake up alone is good for Nashville.

 

[PredsV82]

I mean, there should be some conversations, especially with the remaining leadership group, but they have to have seen what we all see

 

[PredsV82]

This is good twittering

BFC is still scarred from the time we traded for a guy with his same last name and then flipped him hours later.

Yeah that's just extrapolating way too much out of a vague "really, no shit?" tweet from someone not even with the team

Thanks for reliving the PTSD, doc! I THOUGHT YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO BE A HEALER!!!!!!!!! WHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm not sure that we can say that he's over his injuries. He looked like he maybe was when he was healthy during the 17-18 and 18-19 seasons, but then he missed the entire 19-20 season. He was then healthy again for 20-21, but had only 9 points in 52 games, which was half his previous points per game. I wouldn't say that he's over his injuries until he can stay healthy for more than a few seasons and get back to at least his prior production. Hopefully, he does, starting this upcoming season, but the uncertainty was seemingly enough for both Philly and Nashville to pass on.

I'm counting on it just being an emotional, "sucks to see friends leave" response, because if our "leadership group" couldn't recognize the difference in the play and swagger of the team last year when Arvy, Ellis, etc... were out and when they were in the lineup, I have some serious concerns about their suitability as team leaders.

 

[braindead]

You had me with “Ryan Ellis was traded”…. Everything after that was gravy. He made our team actually worse- clearly, demonstrably and consistently worse- when he was in the lineup and with Hyne as our coach, that seemed unlikely to change. His size and contract just added to the risk.

So based on that, Rocco is gone soon.

 

[AintLifeGrand]

interesting that the Capital City Club (Forsberg, Ellis , Johansen , josi , Ekholm, Arvy) were also the ones to have issues with Fiala, eventually leaving to his departure from the team.

Perhaps there is a systemic leadership issue in the locker room and could be contributing to the lackluster play .

Did hazing contribute to the issues with Fiala “not fitting in?”.

This team has been gutless since the Cup Run (outside of our turn around this year with the ol boys out ) and it very well could be the vibe in the room.

Myers is the classic tools no toolbox player. To get the most out of him, he needs to play a simple game where he reacts instead of thinks, because if he's thinking, he's in trouble. Use him correctly and he should be a plus addition, but he'll do some jaw-dropping shit from time to time, both good and bad.

 

[mattihp]

High upside, he just turned 22 and was probably a top 5 prospect in the league when he was a prospect.

He also has great he ckey IQ. Can't be taught to his level. He can still learn a lot and be an excellent #2 one day.

Every young Dman does that. Heck even Josi still does that from time to time. Luckily we have some guys that are good to learn from.

I don't think it's a learning thing. Myers has outstanding physical tools but he doesn't think the game at a very high level. Pair him with a guy who does and he has something to offer. He had a particularly rough season but I would have liked to have seen him get another shot.

First, you need to stop. You have no idea who had a problem with Fiala, the only name on that list I've heard anything like that about was Josi and that was before Fiala was a full time player, and it was more of a listen to me kid.

It's funny how you keep bringing up the locker room like you've been in it. Probably never been in any locker rooms.

Eh we will see what he can do. He's still pretty young for a Dman so Ekholm might be able to straighten him out.

 

[triggrman]

I like this trade. I've not watched enough of Myers to evaluate him, but I like the idea of getting a big physical guy that can move, especially on the right side.
