RD Philippe Myers (2015 undrafted; 2015 signed, PHI)

[Curufinwe]

I'd like to see Myers get thru to the Memorial Cup again so we can watch him on a big stage, but 8-seed Chicoutimi are giving them all they can handle even without Rubtsov.

They have essentially 0 shot at getting by either Charlottetown and especially Saint John

 

[tigervixxxen]

When RN is on their game they can beat anyone. Charlottetown has never been to the 3rd round before in franchise history and couldn't beat Saint John once down the stretch, they certainly aren't unbeatable. RN would have the best shot to defeat Saint John in the finals too. But no, I wouldn't hold too high hopes seeing Myers in the Mem Cup again, but he can start by doing something to win tonight though.

 

[Curufinwe]

St John making it would be good, too, since Dove-McFalls plays for them.

This kid looks pretty damn close to NHL ready.

Yea him vs Oscar Lindblom in dev camp has been awesome to watch. I think Myers will get the sanheim treatment and play in the AHL first but it certainly wouldnt shock me to see him suit up this year for the Flyers.

 

[FlyTimmo]

Morin, Sanheim, Hagg and Myers are all pretty much NHL ready. Hextall will not start 4 rookies. So, unfortunately Myers will probably start the year in the AHL and if he is playing really well he maybe could join the team near the TDL or Christmas.

 

[Tripod]

So much talent all hitting at the same time.

They can afford to be patient, but these guys might force the Flyers hands. I would be totally fine if this year was a "development" year and they threw 3 kids into the starting 6 D. They all have AHL experience so they are not 18/19 year olds being thrown into the deep end.

Myers only has junior games under his belt. Haven't seen anything from this camp, but last year he looked good.

Let Myers develop in the AHL this year. Morin and Hagg are ready and I suspect Sanheim will also force his way onto the big club at camp.

The 3 kids I was referring to was Sanheim, Morin and Hagg....not Myers.

A few highlights from Myers this season.

 

[Broad Street Buddies]

Myers is off to a great start with 3g 3a +10 in 9 games. He is taking more shots this year and I feel we are about to see him take another step in his offensive game.

Chabot, Girard, Lajoie, Myers, Beaudin, Morin...that’s an exciting group of blue liners made in Québec.

Lajoie played most of his hockey outside of Quebec, but it's an impressive list nevertheless.

A 21 years old 6’5 RHD leading the AHL in points at even strength?

I am surely not the only Flyers fan who fantasize about that young, big and beautiful D.

Provorov (21) - Sanheim (22)
Ghost (25) - Hagg (23)
Morin (23) - Myers (21)

Come on, I am serious here.

Can you, at the very least, tell me if you feel that my D is deep enough?

As a Habs fan, it's getting so deep it hurts

 

[Tatar Shots]

That’s surprising, he isn’t even pacing for the most even strength points from a Dman this year.

 

[Dr Quincy]

Clearly this means Myers will be better than Subban but not as good as TJ Brennan.

Yeh, it is difficult to do over a whole season... and most guys who start on that kind of pace are "extracted" from the AHL before they get a chance.

If guys produce at such a high level they generally get called up before they hit 20 games... like Pilut, Hronek and Yakovlev this season.

 

[Mikos87]

How was he eligible to be signed in 2015, despite being draft eligible in 2016?

Anyone know how that works?
