Player Discussion Tyler Myers thread
- Thread starter Angry Little Elf
- Start date
Somebody gave me shit on here the other day because I called out his penalty taking in the playoffs. Lol
Benning and the Canucks were warned......signing Myers to a long-term contract would be a major mistake....but when it comes of UFA signings, Jethro 'knows best'. That contract will be a nightmare before it's over.

Just like that.
Just one game is all it took
and Tyler Myers is back into 2nd place in the NHL in minors taken.
guy was 3rd in the playoffs despite playing 2 less series.
didnt skip a beat. right where he left off.

Remember when Benning was being commended for getting Tyler Myers at a discount instead of the 7x7 number the org clearly leaked to the press so that they could look good?
Armia is out with a concussion....the NHL's player safety committee is going to throw the book at Myers....wouldn't surprise me if gets 3-5 games.
And that would leave the Canucks with no option but to promote Rathbone to join Juolevi and Rafferty in their top four. Chatfield might have been an option, but looking like he'll be gone for some time with an 'upper body injury'. And the only d-men left in the organization are Sautner and Brisebois in the AHL.
Five games in, and the Canucks are already trying to survive with an AHL defense. Turn out the lights, the party's over.

I remember. I also remember calling out this bad contract 3 months before it was even signed.

Where have you been? The Canucks are so reprimand-able and I’m so here for your takes.
I’m also here for the omega reference

And there is zero reason for it.
No one goes from super awesome rookie year to sucking ass unless they are f***ing lazy.
Hes learned to rely on his height and reach advantages and less effort.

Gotta be honest Im disappointed in you.
Normally youre a good poster but failing to insert depreciation in the thread is pretty egregious.
Because thats all he is: a depreciating asset.

Twitter is easily the best social media platform.
It depends on how you organise your follows.
Experts in pretty much in every field will post to Twitter and pretty much none of the other platforms.

I think 80-90% of us did
Infact I remember three months before the signing we were hearing rumours of $6 million for 4-6 seasons, then days before the UFA frenzy rumours went up to $7-8 million and up to 6-8 seasons... And as expected we were all even more worried... Then signed the $6 million 5 year nightmare and the bigger supporters of the GM were like 'see all those $7-8 million fears were for nothing! Victory'

for three glorious years we have/had both
that's half of each contract
with that rookie year, he also had an ideal partner in henrik tallinder. the minute he lost the mitchell/hamhuis to his bieksa, he began regressing. (which of course is also why benning shot himself in the foot by signing myers and in the process losing tanev, who was that valuable player that allowed quinn be the best rookie quinn he could be.)
not long after, they got ehrhoff and myers lost his PP role, offensively stagnated, and then became one of those "what are you supposed to be?" defencemen.
not saying he isn't also lazy though. he totally is.

Myers' penalties since the play-in is so odd. This has historically been a player who has manged to keep his PIM to below a penalty minute per game. He had 49 PIM in 68 regular season games for the Canucks last season. The previous season he had 63PIM and 48 before that. His last 16 games he has had 42 PIM!!! and it's not because he's been fighting. Like WTF
He's being relied on way more and has been playing as if he's not. Lazy lazy plays, gets caught, takes penalty - repeat

When Myers has his penalty parade, I find that its usually for being overzealous, roughing etc...
