I don't want to get into the Myers thing ieetbred, I promised another poster I wouldn't and i'm not.
Nor do I want to honestly.
That horse has been beaten beyond recognition and I will even admit that.
And I also had a pretty good "troll/role" in that. - BuffaloHardHat
So because a few posters (maybe most? lol) dont want to read it its a no-no now? I think the horse is alive and well. Not even trying to troll with that statement.
He is a hot topic of debate here, and on the radio. Unless the sabres receive a top line scoring winger in return for him AND sign the top UFA defenseman i believe his value to this team for the next 3-4 years outweighs what we will bring back for him.
Mind you signing the top UFA dman would only replace what he brings untill our younger defenseman are truly ready. I want to sign someone like that to add to myers, risto.. ect.

Fair post, if Myers + gets you Hall, you move him! Just don't see that happening.

Thanks for the interest in trying to start a genuine conversation brother.
Honestly.
But I am all Tyler Myer'd out , seriously man.
And as I said previous, I did promise DK I would not go here for a while.
I'm fine with Myers being what he is and i'll just leave it at that.

I dont see it happening either, which is some of the reason i would like to see him stay and weigh our other options to generate more scoring. Pending the first pick and reinhart being ready our offense should get a boost from that too.
I still believe coaching is a massive problem and for this season that is OK. Nolan should and hopefully will be on a very short leash next season.

I'm going to circumvent the Myers part and state why I don't think it would happen from Edmonton's end.
It's rumored that Hall asked for a trade, but if I'm Edmonton, he's the guy I'm keeping to continue building around. If I'm their GM, I'm more inclined to trade RNH or Eberle before Hall. Obviously the talent drop off beyond them is pretty large.
I think they should focus on trying to get Yakupov right, so they can turn around and flip him for an upgrade on the back end. They need to focus on trying to at least get some production out of the guys they have that are there so they can figure out where they really need to improve.

I like the way you think Goose.
And you are very knowledgeable when it comes to the game and I respect your opinion.
By the way, good luck tomorrow (I think I my old blind ass may need it soon myself) and Happy Birthday.
