Tyler Myers News

Myers, 25, was the 12th overall pick in the 2008 draft. He has seemingly regressed at the same rate as his team in each of his first five and a half seasons in the NHL. He was asked to do a lot on a bad team and the move to Winnipeg should definitely help him. He is in the third year of a seven year deal and his fantasy value is now much higher than it was when he woke up this morning. This is a defenseman who had 48 points (11G / 37A) in his rookie season.

Myers was injured on Thursday night after blocking a shot in Edmonton. Despite the minor injury, he will be available tonight in Vancouver. He has one goal and one assist in his last two games.

Myers has missed the last seven games with a lower-body injury but will get back into the lineup on Tuesday vs. New Jersey. "He's an anchor back there,” head coach Ted Nolan said after practice today. This is a big boost for the Sabres blue line—he will be paired with Josh Gorges.

Myers has missed the last seven games with a lower-body injury, but skated again on Monday which is a good sign that he will return tomorrow vs. the Devils. Myers has one goal and seven assists in 32 games this season.

Myers will miss his second straight game tonight and is going to be out awhile the Sabres coach told reporters on Tuesday. Expect little details on Myers injury while he has the ‘week-to-week’ tag.

Myers injury is not believed to be serious and the Sabres believe he could be back on Tuesday in Detroit. With Myers out, Mark Pysyk will play after being recalled from Rochester this morning.

Myers left Saturday’s game with a lower-body injury and did not return. With Myers injured, the Sabres are expected to recall a defenseman from Rochester for tonight’s game vs. the Bruins.

Myers played a ridiculous 31:34 TOI on Saturday and is likely not 100% after missing two of the last five games. Expect him to be back with Josh Gorges on the Sabres top-pairing.

Myers missed Wednesday’s game with an undisclosed injury, but will be back in tonight vs. the Canadiens. He will be paired with Tyson Strachan. Myers has averaged 24:36 TOI and scored one goal with four assists in 21 games.

Myers missed Wednesday’s game with an undisclosed injury, but it looks like he will be back on the blue line tonight vs. the Habs. He was paired with Tyson Strachan in the morning skate which suggests he will play. He has five points (1G / 4A) in 21 games.

It is believed that Myers suffered the injury while blocking a shot in the Sabres win over the Capitals on Saturday. Andrej Meszaros will slide into the lineup with Myers out. He is day-to-day.

Myers, who just returned from an elbow injury, is now sidelined with a different upper-body ailment now. Rasmus Ristolainen is up from Rochester and will play tonight, but it does not sound like Myers will be out long-term.

Myers who had just returned to the lineup on Tuesday after missing five games with an elbow injury, suffered an upper-body injury in his first game back and will likely "miss some time" according to Sabres head coach Ted Nolan. With Myers out, Rasmus Ristolainen has been recalled from Rochester.

Myers has missed the last five games with an arm injury that he suffered in mid-March. The Sabres sent 19-year-old Rasmus Ristolainen back to the AHL to make space for Myers. He has nine goals, 13 assists and 58 penalty minutes with a minus-26 rating in 61 games this season. At 24-years-old, the 6-foot-8 D-man has certainly taken a step back in the last four seasons after a great rookie campaign in 2009-10.

Myers has been battling an undisclosed injury lately, but has still been playing nearly 25 minutes a night. He will take a seat tonight and call-up Rasmus Ristolainen will be in.

Myers missed the Sabres last two games before the Olympic break with a knee injury that he suffered on February 3 vs. Edmonton. Myers has just one assist with an ugly minus-11 in his last eight games. He should see his regular 20-plus minutes in his return on Tuesday.

Myers was expected to miss tonight's game, but interim head coach Ted Nolan confirmed that he is not healthy enough to play. Chad Ruhwedel will re-enter the lineup in Myers spot. The Sabres are hopeful that Myers will be available on Thursday.

Myers was injured on Monday, but the injury is not as serious as originally expected. He is listed as day-to-day and may miss tonight's tilt with the Penguins.

Alexander Sulzer is likely to take a seat in the press box with Myers returning. Myers has 12 points (4G / 8A) with an ugly minus-15 rating in 42 games this season.

Myers will not play tomorrow, Thursday or Sunday. He is eligible to returns to the lineup next Tuesday vs. Philadelphia.
