This is great news for Vancouver as they were already a tad bit thin with their depth on the right side of the blue line with Filip Hronek, Myers, Vincent Desharnais and Noah Juulsen.
Mark Friedman and Jett Woo are currently the next two in line for a call up on that side of the defense, but it is encouraging for Myers that the team has yet to call up a replacement which indicated the do not expect him to be out for very long.
