first off...love the knick for this kid.....i saw it reading a hockey article somewhere,then i saw PSP had the two avatars with "The Big Easy" in it.....I think it fits perfecty....he is big (soon to be mean too - hehe ;) ), and he makes playing hockey look so easy....he is so calm, cool, and collective with the puck out there....and he skates so gracefully, and effortlessly out there (Hey Soupy, Your spinorama's got nothing on The Big Easy~~! )

I can't stop getting chills when i think about this kid.....he has a VERY VERY bright future....i've never called it out before, or can't remember anyone ever talking about it this early in someone's career, but....

future hall of famer (barring major injuries, etc.) ? maybe even better than hall of famer?

this kid is going to be good....scary good

For those times that the Stanley Cup appears to be locked in an impenetrable safe that says, "Keep out Buffalo Sabres," you can always count on Big Easy.

Has Myers ever acknowledged the nickname? If so, what does he think of it??

Myers is our stud defender, and everyone wanted to trade for one.

Who in their right mind could have seen a 19 year old rookie turning stud his first season?

first off, the nick name has to go. its terrible.

but he sure looks good, but i do wonder about him jumping up on plays so often. here and there is ok, but he always jumps up. concerns me a little.

He's also one of the first to chug those wheels back into the defensive zone to negate an odd-man rush. He is rarely out of position for more than a second, and he skates like the dickens back into position. He can jump up whenever he wants.

The big easy automatically makes me think of man ho's. I'm not in love with the nickname, but that's moot. He's the real deal, crappy nickname or not.

Saying Tyler Myers makes things look effortless is kind of an understatement :lol:

I'm still very partial to Tyler Tall and Tyler Small for the boys from the Dub, but Big Easy is really growing on me.
