If his value drops to close to nothing, it wouldn't surprise me to see Buffalo use a compliance buyout on him.

$683k over 10 years if they choose to buy him out this summer.

Myers hockey IQ is so low. On the 5 on the 3 power play all he did was shot it into the defender in front of him 3 times! I was a big fan of his when he was drafted but I expected his IQ to go up as the years went by, but it's honestly looking like a lost cause at the moment.

I'd take Myers and a pick if they'd like to have Butler back. I don't think he's that bad, nor do I think Buffalo is near that desperate, but if it ever came to that.

Philly dominating but Bernier is looking good.

Yeah I'd take Myers only if we're giving up very little value.

I think the pressure of a big money contract got to him. It looks like he second guesses everything he does.

Giroux gets away with a lot of hooking and stick infractions while forechecking. Got away with a couple of clear hooks already tonight.

I honestly hope we don't trade for Myers, especially on his current contract. It could bite us in the ass later on down the road.

I am not so sure... The Flames have at least 2 years, probably 3, where the cap will be a non-issue. In 3 years, $5.5m will be the price of a number 3 d-man. And he would have 2 years left.

If we could get him cheap, I think it's a decent risk. He might be done, but he might just need a change of scenery and a fresh start.

Butler and Byron for Myers and a 2nd.

I think there should be more penalty shots, but that should not have been one

Paul Ranger makes Chris Butler look like Bobby Orr. Such an over-hyped, terrible defenceman.

I hope Orr sees a suspension on that. Cross-checked Rosehill in the face

Orr should've got 5 and game for that cross check?

Dirty.
