Inks two-year extension Myers agreed to terms on a two-year, $1.7 million contract extension with Toronto on Friday.

Impact Myers has been in and out of the Leafs' lineup all season, in part due to a long-term injury, limiting him to just 11 appearances. Still, it seems the club has seen enough to warrant an extension for the 27-year-old defenseman, who was signed to a one-year deal only six months ago.

Grabs helper in win Myers posted an assist and four hits in Friday's 5-2 win over the Red Wings.

Impact Myers has played in eight of 13 games in December, and he's often been in a top-four role on paper when he suits up. The 27-year-old has two helpers this month, accounting for all of his offense through nine appearances this season. He's added 11 shots on net, 26 hits, eight blocked shots and a plus-1 rating. Myers will need to show more offense over a longer stretch of time before he can be considered in most fantasy formats.

Impact This was Myers' first game action since he spent a week in the AHL on a conditioning stint. The 27-year-old defenseman has appeared in just two games this season, adding four shots on net and eight hits.

Impact Myers didn't get into Tuesday's clash with Vancouver and will now head back down to the minors, switching places with Sean Day, who was brought up the the NHL in a corresponding move.
