  1. That's what Florida gets for playing a Spanish goalie.
  2. Ritchie is an interesting thought. I still think Dallas could have an interest.
  3. This is exactly what I think. Murray doesn't value Myers as highly as many on this forum do. There is a reason our barn has been filled with scouts for the past couple of months and there is a reason outlets keep reporting on Myers trade rumors and on the asking price for Myers (e.g. Larkin + Jurco + a first). Where there is smoke there is fire. I think Murray is very open to such a trade and has given his trade demands to multiple teams. http://prohockeytalk...-is-reportedly/ If a team steps up to the plate, bye bye Big Tyler. If not, then he is already signed long-term and we're winning. Murray has a ton of leverage and he knows that. So now he waits...
  4. That's my avatar! ...or at least it used to be.
  5. Pysyk would be better if he bought a vowel. "Sometimes Y" just isn't cutting it. :mellow:
  6. Fair question. Whenever anyone talks about Myers' offensive ability it begins and ends with his skating. He can fly into the zone with the puck when he chooses to. My question is his passing and vision. Yes, he can skate. And, I love his defensive game as of late - his reach is a huge asset on the penalty kill. But, honest question, when is the last time anyone said "wow, what a great pass by Myers?" ...It just doesn't happen. I also don't think he has the vision and creativity to be a top pair power play guy. My assessment of Myers has always been he a good, but not great player. Do we need him to be great? That's a whole other discussion. This is a case where Murray has all the leverage. We're winning and Myers is signed long-term. If someone gets desperate he moves Myers. Otherwise, Myers is staying for the foreseeable future. I'd trade Myers for Seth Jones straight up in a heartbeat. Seth is a better all-around player than Big Tyler. Ellis is for sure better offensively, but Myers has him on the defensive end. Mattias Ekholm is debatable. I like Matty a lot and he is getting better and better with experience after coming over from Sweden.
  7. I ###### her in the ###### and then my ###### got ###### stuck in the ######. I like the profanity filter. It's like playing a game of mad libs.
  8. 8 straight wins for the Black Hawks. They're a machine.
  9. I respectfully disagree. I honestly don't see Myers as a high-end puck moving defenseman. I just don't think he is "elite" offensively. I think Nashville has the league's best group of puck moving defensemen and IMHO Myers would be probably the 6th best puck mover on the Preds (Weber, Josi, Jones, Ellis, and Ekholm). I am of the opinon that Risto has better offensive upside than Myers.
  10. :D The Sabres might be in your spot if they keep playing like this!
  11. We're (temporarily) ahead of Edmonton, Carolina, Columbus, Arizona, and Philly in the standings. And, tied with Colorado. And, just one point behind Lindy's Dallas Stars.
  12. Huge save by Ethron for the win! Sabres up to 24 points in the standings now.
  13. 3 assists for Ennis. 2 goals for MattyMo. 1 goal, 1 assist for Zemgus. Nice night for that line.
  14. Record your voice for loved ones while you still can.
  15. Crud. He kicked it in. :cry: Ah... the hockey God's are shining favorably upon us tonight.
