Late replying but if this is what you think Ryan is you are wrong. He's actually a high skilled guy that didn't get an NHL shot until very late. Even initially when signed by the Canes he was largely in the minors where he continued to put up points.
He has always shown skill, just a matter of people not thinking that skill would translate.
I view him as the new breed of bottom 6 forward where he has a combination of character and a some offensive pop.
