BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) — As tall as he is, Tyler Myers' stock on the Buffalo Sabres grew even larger after the rookie defenseman enjoyed a career-best performance.
At 6-foot-8, Myers had a goal and three assists to spark the Sabres' sluggish offense in a 5-3 win over the Dallas Stars on Wednesday night. Aside from helping Buffalo score five goals for the first time in 18 games, the rookie of the year candidate helped the team regain the top spot in the Northeast Division.
"He's been an important piece to our team," coach Lindy Ruff said of the player who celebrated his 20th birthday last month. "I thought even in the third period, he was just having fun playing."
It was an enjoyable night for Myers, who opened the scoring in the first minute with a shot that deflected in off of three bodies.
