But ... hey... Well i'm french too and all he's saying is that he got hit in the face haha Quote «Touche pas au numéro 13», a dit Genazzi au Letton fautif, avant de se prendre un bon coup de poing au visage et de passer quatre minutes sur le banc des pénalités dans la foulée. «Il m’a bien cogné, juste sur le nez, et ça a un peu piqué. Mais bon…» Caissier, policier: vraiment un précieux gars d’équipe, Genazzi! so...... "Dont touch number 13..." then said he got hit in the face and spent 4 minutes in the penalty box... then he said "he got me good, right on the nose.. it stung a bit but hey....." so the updated version is... "don't hit #13 cause you'll have to punch someone trying to make a point and spend 4 minutes in the box" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rob_Ottawa 36 Posted May 10 (edited) From TSN Free Agent tracker: Who knew that a 55 year old could still play... Anyway, do we try and throw the bank at a guy like Myers? Or is that not a good idea? Karlsson is obviously the best offensive dman available, but I feel we need pure defense at this point. Edited May 10 by Rob_Ottawa Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't get to see Myers play a lot so don't know much about him except he started with Buffalo. Is he slow, inept, plodding, poor teammate? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is he slow, inept, plodding, poor teammate? He stinks. He's been overrated ever since his rookie year and Buffalo of all teams threw him in the Kane deal. He has bad possession numbers playing on a good team where he is not playing against the other team's best players and his time on ice has dropped steadily since he's been in Winnipeg who has made no efforts to keep him around, which tells you something. He's this offseason's Jack Johnson. Just. Don't. Do It. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It seems like one of the network plays it once a year and that's it. It is one of the greatest hidden gems of the HS teen genre from the 80's (along with Can't Buy Me Love). 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Like to see him pursued but being reasonable with $$$/term. I wonder if we're kinda set on Centers? Trav/Zacha/Nico & Hughes? I think Zucker be a nice addition. Nyquist? nah.

I'd take a flyer on Myers before I brought the Rev back.. and I actually liked his season/post season this year. Myers as a top pair is bad news, Myers in the bottom 4 and not relied on to be THE shutdown guy would be fine at the right price. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rob_Ottawa 36 Posted May 12 Ya from what you guys are saying, Myers is mediocre at best so hardly worth the 6+ million he will want. Pass on that Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MadDog2020 6,660 Posted May 12 From Friedman’s 31 Thoughts this week: 31. Finally, congratulations to Matt Cane, hired by New Jersey as Director of Analytics. A few teams have tried to hire him, and this is the opportunity he chose. His work I’m most familiar with is on contracts. He’d do an annual spreadsheet predicting what various players would get on their upcoming deals, with guesstimates for different term lengths. His model was reasonably accurate, and I’ll miss going through it. 2 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Even if it's just the data and not actually any formulas or calculations he may have used to guess and predict contracts. Just would be interesting to see how close he was on some of the big names/contracts over the last few years. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Consensus on Myers seems to be that if he wasn't a physical freak at 6'-7" or whatever he'd have washed out of the league ages ago. Seems like one of those guys with the physical tools but zero between the ears. Unless we can get him on a very, very favorable contract I would pass. Hard pass.

jagknife 2,217 Posted May 15 (edited) This came out 11 days ago and after looking through this thread only, I didnt see anything from that day other than a back and forth about a certain player which I wont name to avoid 2.0 Hypothetically speaking. say Marner wants $10.5m... I'd honestly have to give it a good thought for the cost. Hall/Nico/Bratt & Marner/Hughes/Palms... as a potential top 6.... Hell Devil Killer Point wouldnt be a bad guy to go after either Of course, we need to lock up Hallsy but with the asinine cap space we'll have currently and will be off the books in the coming years....
