The gigantic Texan (he stands at 6’8”), Tyler Myers, is a former Calder Trophy winner (albeit with the Buffalo Sabers), and has always been able to use his size effectively.

Myers was not able to replicate what he did in Buffalo (as a Jet), but he did manage to have a pair of 30-point seasons during his time as a Jet. The big man played for Winnipeg from 2015 to 2019, where he managed 114 Points.
