The player also has to worry about his own safety. I'm sure Ryan could have done something more to get out of the way but maybe he thought he'd injure himself by doing so. Either way, he didn't really "run" the goalie as he was trying to stop. It's a crappy play but it does happen a lot and if roles were reversed we'd be saying it was all the defenders fault for pushing him.
