All the GMs have officially went crazy. The guy is a 4/5 d-man who puts up maybe 30 points a season and is average from an advanced stats perspective
Plus he’s 29 (turns 30 next season) so you’d be locking him up until he’s 37 years old.
Canucks seem to be the front runner. Crazy to think that instead of doing things like buying an extra first round pick like Carolina did they are giving up firsts for JT Miller and offering Tyler Myers $50M+ dollars.

Miller at least is a decent player while Myers is not.

Over the last three seasons, he’s allowed the most expected goals against per 60 amongst Jets defenders.

At this point, my model figures Myers provides bottom pairing value and it’s only a matter of time before that value disintegrates further.

This is that time of year where GM's feel they need to add players out of desperation of keeping their jobs. I expect the GM that signs Myers will likely be fired before the half way point of the deal as it's going to be a disastrous contract and the GM's willing to pay that money probably already have one foot out the door.
