Myers was a healthy scratch for the Sabres last two games. He only has 1 goal and is a -9 in the 11 games he appeared in so far this season. The Sabres are hoping that using him as a healthy scratch will serve as a wake-up call to Myers and get his game back on track.

Tyler Myers spent his second straight game in the press box on Sunday.

Sabres coach Lindy Ruff sent Myers a message by scratching him Saturday, but to keep him out of the lineup two games is particularly troubling. Myers is still very likely to be reinserted from Tuesday's contest.

The Buffalo Sabres scratched Tyler Myers in Saturday's win against the lowly Islanders.

Myers is a league-worst minus-nine in 11 games and has registered just one point this season. "I'm embarrassed, and I should be," said Myers after today's optional morning skate at the Nassau Coliseum. "Two years in a row now, it doesn't feel very good. But the silver lining, I responded the way I needed to last time and that's what I have to do this time." Myers hasn't lived up to expectations since his amazing 48-point rookie campaign and is unfortunately a fantasy liability.
