WildCard Posted December 3, 2015 Report Share Posted December 3, 2015 There was a long storied conversation on the board about trading Tyler myers. Ryan Getzlaf's name came up frequently. Most posters thought Getzlaf wasn't enough for our young franchise defenseman. Then the tank happened, Myers was exposed for what he was, a decent 2nd pair Dman, and the thought of getting a return like Getzlaf was laughable. Then we traded him for Bogo and Kane... Now that's a thread I would pay to read Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwksndmonster Posted December 3, 2015 Report Share Posted December 3, 2015 Misrepresentation of the argument. Getzlaf's contract situation made him little more than a year and 3 month rental, while Myers was locked up for 8+years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is true of almost any trade involving an expiring deal unless it's known the player in going to FA, like a trade deadline deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is true of almost any trade involving an expiring deal unless it's known the player in going to FA, like a trade deadline deal. That's why no deal could be done. We were discussing it a full 7 or 8 months before we could've resigned Getzlaf. I'm pretty sure by the off season the trade rumors stopped. I doubt he was ever available.

Ducky Posted December 4, 2015 Report Share Posted December 4, 2015 I'd be interested to know what everyone thinks Myers is really worth at this point I'm hoping Hamonic... if we don't re-sign Buff, I'd keep Myers and be out of the Hamonic trade, though. He creates a lot of offense from the back end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason the deal couldn't be done was because Anaheim would never have done it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ducky Posted December 6, 2015 Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 Then, all of a sudden, all the players involved in the trade are playing well and everyone is happy....just in time for Christmas. Everyone except Armia.....he was called up and hasn't seen a minute of ice time.....why do teams do that? Let him get top line minutes on the Moose if you aren't going to play himm. It's not llke your farm team is half way across the continent....bewildering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
French Collection Posted December 6, 2015 Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 Kasdorf with a shutout last night vs Harvard. He had lost the starter's role after his injury but this should be a sign of better times for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ducky Posted December 8, 2015 Report Share Posted December 8, 2015 That's what we need is ANOTHER RHD. He is a good skater and punishing hitter....the O side of his game hasn't materialized as expected so shouldn't be counted on for a lot of point generation. He's big and has a good shot but takes some dumb, inopportune penalties. He played well on the PK. He can handle a lot of ice time. He was getting better defensively under Maurice but wasn't under Noel's system. A solid aggressive 2nd pairing D man. Has to limit his injuries as he is making top dollar and only plays 3/4 of the games and I would say that is his biggest con, too many missed games.

Don't sweat it, it's become a mocking turn of phrase. Kane has been nothing but class since he's been here. I can't believe he didn't show any of this while in Winnipeg.
