Profile Contributed By: HF Staff
History
2007-08: Bringing towering height to the blue-line, Myers recorded 19 points in 65 games with WHL Kelowna, racking up 97 penalty minutes in the process.
Talent Analysis
Myers has premier size and excellent potential as an offensive defenseman. At this early stage in his development, he is already a great skater, but needs to become a more reliable passer and point man.
Future
Despite having an additional year of junior eligibility and Buffalo's tendency to bring their prospects along slowly, Myers forced his way onto the team with a strong training camp in 2009 and hasn't looked out of place. The towering blue liner with offensive instincts has a promising future in Buffalo.
