Good news on the hulking defender. Myers has been sidelined since November 19th. Expect a further update on the former Calder Trophy winner shortly.
If Kane is available in your fantasy hockey league, add him. He is a goal scoring machine at this point.
Ferland will stay in the WHL the rest of the season but could get a long look at next year's training camp.
Myers went under the knife this morning and is expected to miss four-to-six weeks. He is likely replaced by T.J. Brennan.
Stay tuned for a further word on the hulking defenseman.
Myers gets back in the lineup following a healthy scratch yesterday. The hulking defenseman has only four assists through 16 games disappointing most fantasy hockey owners.
Myers was a 'surprise' scratch for last night's game. He registered only four assists over 16 games on the season, struggling at both ends of the ice. Stay tuned for a further word on his role.
If you own Myers, be sure to bench him for tonight's tilt. The hulking defenseman has registered only four assists through 16 games and failed to bring a nasty physical element to the blue line.
If you own Myers, feel free to start him with confidence as he should play on the top PP unit. So far he has four assists over his first 14 games with the team.
While offseason acquisitions Christian Ehrhoff and Robyn Regehr vastly improved the Sabres blue line, it adversely affected Myers' offensive production. Expect the 6'8" Texas native to come closer to 40 points than 50 when the season is over.
Kane likely draws in for Brett MacLean. Through his first three games in a Jets uniform, the former fourth overall pick was snake-bitten with 12 SOG, no points and a minus-2 rating. Look for him to improve with some much needed rest.
Tough luck for Kane, who was already snake-bitten over his first three games. Look for Brett MacLean to draw back into the lineup and play on a scoring role.
Kane contributed at both ends of the ice on Sunday but failed to show up on the box score. Last season he scored 19 goals and 43 points through 73 games with the now-defunct Atlanta Thrashers. Expect him to improve on last season's totals.
Kane should play much better on a scoring line after toiling on the 'second line' with rookie Mark Scheifele and Kyle Wellwood. Last season he scored 19 goals and 43 points through 73 games with the now-defunct Atlanta Thrashers. In his first game, he seemed somewhat out-of-place, getting held scoreless with a minus-1 rating.
With an improved supporting cast, Myers should be preparing for a career year. Look for his current average of 11 goals and 43 points to be his absolute floor.
