Lightning trade Ryan McDonagh to Predators for Philippe Myers ... (The Athletic)

McDonagh ranks third all-time among Lightning defensemen in the playoffs for games (89), assists (21) and scoring (23 points).

He tallied six goals and 12 points in his rookie season. Myers, 25, played in 27 games for Nashville during the 2021-22 regular season, notching a goal and four points. If Tampa Bay bought out Myers, the team would clear more than $7.3 million in cap space with the trade.

Julien BriseBois wanted to explain his plan to Ryan McDonagh in person, laying out exactly why he was asking the veteran defenseman to waive his no-trade ...

“For whatever reason, things didn’t work out for him at the tail end in Philly and in Nashville last season,” he said. “He’s one of the best defenders in the NHL — he’s a selfless player and a great leader,” BriseBois said. “It allows us to make sure we can make sure we extend it beyond one season,” BriseBois said. BriseBois did not have an update on either situation, but acknowledged moving McDonagh does open the door to more possibilities. Above all else, McDonagh was known for sacrificing his body to block shots while locking down opponents' top stars. The Lightning sent McDonagh to the Nashville Predators on Sunday for younger defenseman Philippe Myers and forward prospect Grant Mismash, clearing significant salary cap space to make more moves this offseason and setting up Tampa Bay to keep younger core players around for the long term.

Has Philippe Myers Found a Home with the Lightning, Not the Leafs? (Yardbarker)

Toronto Maple Leafs' fans know Philippe Myers because he was loaned to the AHL Toronto Marlies during the season. He played well there and there was some ...

The Golden State Warriors have suddenly become a team to watch in the Kevin Durant sweepstakes, but is a reunion a real possibility? Given that the club was mired in a roster teardown and that the Lerner family was exploring a possible sale of the club, it was certainly noteworthy that the team’s manager and primary front office member were both in lame duck status. We're going to regroup, and we're going to be OK." The A's are scheduled to open the homestand with lefty Cole Irvin (2-6, 3.58) on the hill. The fight was suspended during the second round when Munhoz said he was poked in the eye by O'Malley. A doctor didn't allow for the fight to restart, calling for it to end after Munhoz said he couldn't see out of, or even open, his eye. All 26 strikes landed by Munhoz in the fight were kicks to O'Malley's legs, while O'Malley landed 14 strikes to the head, eight to the body, and three to the legs. Cornet responded by winning the final six games of the match to defeat the world's top player in straight sets. The record was still in jeopardy in the bottom of the ninth with the score tied 2-2, as the Astros would've needed another six strikeouts to tie the MLB record for the most in an extra inning game. Albon braked to avoid the wreck and was hit from behind by Sebastian Vettel, sending Albon into the barrier and rebounding into the cars of Yuki Tsunoda and Esteban Ocon. Zhou, Albon, and Russell were all quickly ruled out for the remainder of the race, but Tsunoda, Ocon, and Gasly were able to continue. Hunter Greene will get the start for Cincy, and he’s had to take his lumps in his rookie season, posting a 5.72 ERA and he’s allowed 3-plus runs in five of his last seven starts. The Houston Astros tied an MLB record Sunday with 20 strikeouts in a 4-2 win against the Los Angeles Angels, becoming one of eight teams to ever reach that total in a nine-inning game. Today it was announced that the Tampa Bay Lightning had acquired Philippe Myers and Grant Mismash from the Predators in exchange for Ryan McDonagh. Obviously, McDonagh was the big name in this trade (as NHL TradeTalk had reported earlier. However, for that to happen, he would have had to be bought out by the Nashville Predators or another team.

What the Predators, Lightning get in the Ryan McDonagh trade (Sportsnet.ca)

The Tampa Bay Lightning traded Ryan McDonagh to the Nashville Predators to drop cap, but had to give up a quality defender to do it. Here's a look at what ...

There was a reason the Predators waived him and then sent him to the Toronto Marlies on loan this past season. “He’s one of the best defenders in the NHL — he’s a selfless player and a great leader,” Lightning GM Julien BriseBois said. In his draft year (2017) he was projected as a point producing forward who plays with grit. Tampa has a massive project on their hands acquiring Myers. He needs to be stripped down and built up again. Did the Predators do the Lightning a favour here? "The Nashville Predators solidify their defence core with the acquisition of Ryan McDonagh. He's a proven winner and leader who eats up north of 20 minutes in ice time every game. "I'm curious to see how the Philippe Myers scenario plays out in Tampa. Myers has so far not managed to prove he is a full-time NHL defender who can be trusted in a set role. He was part of Canada's senior men's World Championship team after his second pro season, but hasn't cemented himself as a full-time NHLer. They still have about $18 million in cap space this summer and room to re-sign Filip Forsberg. And now this absolutely does not look like a team that's ready to take a step back. But make no mistake: Nashville gets a solid defender here, and that's hard to say no to when the price is such a bargain. But from an on-ice perspective, the Lightning are immediately going to miss average of 22:27 ice time per game, and his team-leading presence on the penalty kill. McDonagh, a solid shutdown top-four defender, held great value to the Lightning and will surely be missed.
