Tyler Myers

In the Lead?

In the Lead?

by Ryan

I don’t love Ross McKeon, but I do love these three paragraphs:
The debate has only begun regarding this year’s top Calder candidate. And while the crop is once again deep, the clear-cut favorite is Buffalo Sabres defenseman Tyler Myers(notes), and not because of his gaudy offensive numbers for the position he plays or the impressive minutes [...]

The Kid

By Chris
Prepare to hear a lot of gloating about a young stud on the blueline tonight.
And no, I’m not talking about Tyler Myers.

Since we’ll be watching the Los Angeles Kings TV feed tonight, the name you’ll hear a lot…and I mean a lot…will be that of Drew Doughty. I’ve seen quite a few Kings games this year — mainly [...]

It Could Happen

It Could Happen

by Ryan
So it’s official now, but you never know: Tyler Myers might not play tonight. Here are a few things that could happen to prevent Tyler Myers from taking the ice tonight.

- He is horrifficly maulled by a bear.

- The Bat Signal hits the sky.

- It’s garbage day.

- He’s too busy playing Techmo Bowl.

- He’s waiting in line for a Droid.
In other [...]

The kid stays. Wow, no one saw this coming. Shocked. I need to go lay down. More later.

One More Time

by Ryan

I’m posting this for a few reasons. One, it hasn’t gotten old just yet. Maybe in a few months, I’ll let you go.
Second, our friend The Tick is the one who put it up on YouTube for us all to enjoy. I think that’s reason enough to repost it, right?
I’ll have something quite substantial up in [...]

The Limit

The Limit

by Ryan
Just eight games in, the Sabres have found the season’s signature moment.

It’s hard to talk about Tyler Myers effectively. The hype surrounding the 19-year-old is only matched by his stature on the ice. Myers has no place to hide out there, and with the ubiquitous ten-game “tryout” every Sabres fan has watched and analyzed his every move. [...]

Extended Stay

Extended Stay

by Ryan

One of the biggest subplots of the Sabres’ brief season has been the play of Tyler Myers. It’s a game of small sample sizes, with just nine games for both fans and management to evaluate his play and decide his living arrangements for the winter. A quarter of this evaluation period has passed, and most [...]

The Tyler Myers Experiment

By Chris

Nine games.
That’s all the time the Sabres have left to evaluate stud prospect Tyler Myers and essentially determine the course of his professional career.
With Toni Lydman nursing a hand injury and Mike Weber back in the minors, it looks like Myers will have a chance to play in actual NHL games this season. From what I saw [...]

A View From The Roost: The Means, Not the End

By Chris

It really doesn’t matter that the Sabres won last night. It doesn’t.
A preseason game is just that, a game before the real ones count. The result is ultimately insignificant but the way they played means a lot.
The Sabres were able to hang on to a one-goal lead late in a game. Go back to last season [...]

Preseason Fun

By Chris

I’m only going to the Sabres game tonight because of the word “tweet.” That little codeword knocks ticket prices in the 200 level down to $20, so it was too good a deal to pass up.
My apologies to the pregame red carpet festivities hosted by Kevin Sylvester and Maria Genero — I really don’t care about that stuff. [...]

If you’ve been reading Sabres Prospects this year you know how well Tyler Myers has played. Arguably one of the best defensive prospects in hockey, he has been a key component in the Kelowna Rockets’ recent playoff run; and was named series MVP of the WHA Final.
All of that is good news for Sabres fans, [...]

Are We There Yet?

by Ryan
Amazingly, I’ve yet to buy the right package to get NHL Network on my television. I know, I know, I’m totally missing out. I’ve only caught a few games during the World Juniors, and I didn’t get to see Canada play once. That means I missed out on seeing our top two draft picks in [...]
