I think Ryan has a pretty unique player based on his career and can't be compared strictly on the basis of age.
He is 30+ years but not a lot of wear on the tires because he spent most of his career in lower leagues.
Compared to a guy like Brouwer who played a lot of hard hockey for a long time.
Ryan is a tough guy to find a lot of apples to apples comparisons. His journey to the NHL is pretty unique.
