Lightbulb Tyler Myers

After his rookie year, he's simply done nothing to show me he can put up those kind of numbers very often.

2009/2010- 82 GP, 48 points, 104 shots, 91 hits, 137 blocked shots.
2010/2011- 80 GP, 37 PTS, 122 SOG, 107 hits, 98 BS.
2011/2012- 55 GP, 23 PTS, 84 SOG, 78 hits, 70 BS.

I never realized that he takes very few shots for a number one pairing defenseman, I mean 48 points with 104 shots on goal? That's pretty rare, maybe we should have seen it coming.

I think he can be a very good shutdown dman and maybe put up 40 point seasons once in a while, kind of like Brent Seabrook, but the fantasy value just isn't there right now IMO. Ever since that rookie season, he's been grossly overrated in fantasy circles.

Hoping to hear from some of you guys with your thoughts on Myers.
