So for all the "Myers cost us the game" vitriol, theres usually several other players who made mistakes leading up to the goal as well I can't defend Myers, he's atrocious. However, last game JT, Kuz made costly mistakes. No one hinged properly on Hroneks wall pinch, Zads was in no mans land on one goal. Bunch of players standing around on another goal. But ya, not all on Myers for sure. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is he supposed to hold his hand till he gets a goal as well? It's not like he dropped him down the lineup either, he went from playing with Petey and Mik to playing with Miler and Boeser, the points leader and goal leader. He needs to back check, let's start there. Demko needs to play better. Let’s start there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Demko especially we should always have an advantage in goal. But he’s been second best too often for quite a while. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's just no way to defend the contract and what he has produced here. If he was making 2.5 mil no one would care. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like hitting a guy when he's down and piling on, but I'm just so done with Myers. Edited December 8, 2023 by Rekker 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know others make mistakes, but he makes them in a way that really sticks in your ribs.. or other places. I want him moved for assets at the TDL, and would like to see Woo or Bear get a shot. Bear will likely get paid too much by Treliving tho. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Petey really deserves his respect...but maybe that's what we saw when he reacted to him. Knew how lethal he is and was taking him seriously. I just didn't like it much. He's turning into a full fledged dirty Flame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
