I don’t hate Myers lol, I’ve met him briefly before when he was a Jet. He’s a chill dude. I just don’t think he’s a top 4 dman on a good team. I think Schmidt is, especially in a system where he’s not coached to collapse to the net and just let the opponent gain the blueline like a walk in the park. Vegas is about luck pressure all over the ice. Green only wants puck pressure on the forecheck but in the d-zone it’s clear that the team is coached to usually collapse and then look for a home run stretch pass when they recover the puck.
The entire system relies on being opportunistic off of opponent’s mistakes and great goaltending.
I think Myers could benefit from a more aggressive defensive strategy too, but not as much as Schmidt since Schmidt has more quickness and faster with decisions. I do think the current system favours guys like Edler and OJ who don’t have the skating to stand up at the blueline against faster forwards.

Sorry Nucker, I didn’t mean you specifically I was generalizing about the “fans” that dump on a player that is a good defenceman, but he was immediately hated.
I don’t think he is a #1 D, but I also believe he is better than a #5. He plays quite well in the 3-4 slot.

Agreed.
It is like they judge a player based on how much Benning signs him for, but if someone signs a player for similar, and is traded for, ie, Schmidt, then it is all good. |

A sluggish start but the home crowd will get them pumped.
5-4 OT loss. Myers with a hatty.
Thanks Vintage.

He has been sharp after the breakaway goal. Good thing or the Jets would be up a few more already. |
