Here's something interesting. Rumored for a few days Ducks were interested in Myers.

Talks intensified between Ducks and Sabres on Tyler Myers. Other teams have interest in Myers. Can he be traded ? Its a real possibility.

I'm not here to beat the Myers horse, but rather what would everyone like to see coming back?

I'd like a 1st, a 2nd and one of John Gibson, Nick Kerdiles, Rickard Rakell.

Vatanen, but that is personal preference (not a fan of gambling on young goalies)

I do not want a young goalie prospect in return. They dont hold much value in trades, IMO.

I would target pieces Ritchie, Vaatenen, 1st. (not saying all 3 for Myers)

I love the idea of Ritchie fulfilling potential, but he's so much like Kassian and that scares the poop out of me.

I don't think Vats comes back. Would you do Rackell, Lindholm, 1st for Myers and NYI 2nd?

Do you honestly believe that you are getting that much back for Myers?

I guess we will soon find out.

Absolutely I do.

I see Myers as a more valuable asset than Bobby Ryan (his name proceeds his value).. and he cost a mid 1st, a quality prospect and an upper mid prospect. And we have no need to move Myers. That increases his value even further. Anaheims picks are in the range of high 20, high 50 and a prospect. Yeah, you're damn right I think we get that back.

Lindholm is a non starter for Ana IMO. He plays a huge role for them

the weird thing is, we need a D-man back for Myers. Which confuses me....

I'd be happy with a 1st and 3rd line roster player.

That's how much some Sabres fans over value him.

No way man. You'll get a good prospect or roster player and a 2nd.

I don't think they'd part with anyone who is integral to their nhl team. They might move someone for cap reasons so my best guess would be an okay roster player + prospect + pick.

Yes. He has played the 10th most minutes in the entire league. I know you dont like him.

Teams see him as an asset.

His value might be more to Buffalo than it is in trade.

I don't think he'll get what most sabres fans are dreaming of, that i can agree on. But if the best they can do is a 1st and 3rd line player he's better off just keeping myers and seeing what he can do when the team is semi-good.

Tim's not dealing (frank)ing Myers for a 3rd line scrub and a late first. Come on guy.

On a good team in the right system he'd be twice the player he is now. IMO he doesn't get moved. And I'm okay with that.

Andrew Macdonald played like 26 mins a night for the islanders last year. Playing a lot of minutes on a bad team doesnt mean a defenseman is automatically elite.

A first and a 3rd line roster player is hardly crap.

It's just my opinion and as I said, I think we will be finding out what his market value is shortly because I have a gut that he is going to be moved for the betterment of this franchise moving forward.

You may be right with what you feel we can get back, i'm not so sure.
But, a team that feels that they can go deep may certainly overpay for Myers.
Time will tell.

I really don't care who is wrong or who is right.

That's not what this is about at all.

It's a matter of opinion.

And I feel some of you over value him, and that's just this guys opinion.

That's not to say that some brain dead GM may indeed over pay for him however.
