I thnk Yandle is a better fit for Det than Myers is as well. Can really boost the powerplay.

Make no mistake. Myers would help their powerplay as well. His numbers here are all about the less than mediocre forward group he has in front of him, that he wouldn't have in Detroit.

I don't think there is a single team that wouldn't mind giving up their tartars to address needs. The best is when its a a few spare parts and that much needed 2nd round pick lol.

Yandle produces with the forwards he has. Your argument is invalid. Myers will never produce the points Yandle does.

Yandle does it with an even worse forward group in Arizona. He is the better offensive player by far.

Thats the only thing missing in his game . But if he WAS producing , The Sabres might not be in the position they are in.

Myers is younger & better defensively
I think either guy would be a great fit for the wings
Yandle will cost less though, so that's prob the best way to go for u guys

And that's the point a lot of people are trying to make.

"Potential" might or might not be there, it's a crap shoot, basically.
But to give up the farm for potential, many GMs actually do their homework.

That's the thing keeping him from being elite IMO and with 6 years of NHL experience I tend to believe the potential thing less and less.

Seems shy of what he used to be as far as getting aggressive on the play.

Very debatable. I call it a wash.

Funny, Red Wing fans don't seem to like Myers much and don't think he fits in but it's the Wings GM that has called the Sabres over 5 times and has gotten nothing but dial tones from Murray. Also they tried to get Myers at the trade deadline last year as well.

He has his brain farts like everyone else. Not too many amazing defensive plays are on the game highlights . But...


That could come back. Last coach killed everyones game play and changed everyone. Maybe they will get back to what they do best. Seems the coach did institute that mind set at the beginning of the season. They aren't there yet.

Murray is not in the same league to treat Holland with Dial tones, buddy.

Do you know this for a fact or are you just pulling info off twitter? I don't think anyone knows what is being discussed. I'm sure they have at least had talks about him though.

Be it as it may, that's what Holland and other GM's are getting, you won't get Myers for nothing.

Precisely right.
Would the Wings fans like to see what Myers can do?
Of course, who wouldn't?
But for that "asking price"?
Not a chance in hell.
