Struggling defenseman Tyler Myers will be a healthy scratch for the first time this season, following a stretch of games that have left many shaking their heads.
Myers is a league-worst minus-nine through 11 games, and has recorded just one point the game-winning goal in Buffalos season opener against Philadelphia.
Im embarrassed, and I should be, said Myers after todays optional morning skate at the Nassau Coliseum. Two years in a row now, it doesnt feel very good. But the silver lining, I responded the way I needed to last time and thats what I have to do this time.
