Myers missed Tuesday's contest in Philadelphia with an undisclosed injury. He draws back into Tampa's third defensive pairing as they head to Florida for their matchup Friday. Through three games in 2022-23, Myers has six SOG while averaging 13:26 TOI.
Myers is dealing with a minor injury and needs some rest/recovery time, so he'll come out of the lineup vs. the Flyers. Nick Perbix will make his NHL debut in Myers' place.
Myers was traded to the Predators last year as a part of the Ryan Ellis and Nolan Patrick three-way trade. He appeared in 27 games with Nashville, posting one goal and three assists (four points). Myers should have a chance to crack the Lightning's blueline rotation to start 2023.
Myers was a healthy scratch on Tuesday but will replace Mark Borowiecki (lower-body) in the lineup on Thursday. Myers has one assist in 15 games this season.
Myers developed into a very steady piece of the Flyers top-4 in 2021 and will likely play a very similar role with the Predators in 2022. Myers will land in good hands, playing alongside either Roman Josi or Mattias Ekholm in 2022. He has picked up five goals with 22 assists (27 points) in 94 games over the last two seasons.
Myers has been a mainstay in the Flyers lineup this season but will come out on Thursday with Robert Hagg returning from a shoulder injury.
Myers was a healthy scratch on Thursday but will draw back into the lineup on Saturday. Myers has five assists, a minus-1 rating, 25 shots and four PIMS in 16 games this season.
The Flyers dressed seven defensemen on Tuesday but will go back to the traditional 12 forwards and seven defensemen on Thursday. Andy Andreoff will replace the young blueliner and skate on the fourth line.
Myers has been out since January 19th but will be back in the Flyers lineup on Saturday. Myers is expected to skate with Travis Sanheim and comes in pointless in his first four games of the season.
Myers suffered the injury on a hit from Jake McCabe, who also dislocated Morgan Frost's left shoulder in the same game. With Myers listed as week-to-week, he'll likely miss at least two weeks and Mark Friedman is expected to draw into the lineup for him on Thursday.
Myers was elevated to the NHL full-time in 2020, tallying four goals with 12 assists (16 points) in 50 games. Myers has tremendous size (6-foot-5, 212 lbs.) and could be asked to step into a much larger role on the Flyers blueline in 2021 following Matt Niskanen's sudden retirement.
This announcement comes a few hours after the Flyers labelled Myers as a game-time decision for tonight's game, which obviously isn't the case anymore. Myers should be ready for the start of the playoffs but will be replaced by Shayne Gostisbehere tonight.
Myers was back on the ice for Tuesday's optional morning skate after leaving Monday's practice while dealing with the aftereffects of blocking a shot on Saturday. Myers is considered a game-time decision and will be replaced by Shayne Gostisbehere if he can't play.
Both Myers and Matt Niskanen will be game-time decisions in Ottawa, which means Robert Hagg and a potential call-up could have to play if both are not available.
Myers was not in the lineup for the last two games but it's unclear if it was injury-related. Overall, he has missed three of the last four games but will replace Robert Hagg in the lineup on Thursday. Myers has nine points (3G / 6A), a plus-14 rating and 12 PIMS in 18 games this season.
