If you know that Ryan was 8th, you looked at the stats. Which means you know that there were 10 players in Carolina with 140+ minutes of PP TOI and that the 11th player had about 50 minutes. This is a really, really clear cut situation. Carolina obviously had 2 fairly steady PP units, and Ryan was on one of them.

Or to put it another way, you know that Ryan had 100 minutes more PP TOI than the guy closest to bumping him off the PP. To call that "barely hanging there" is twisting the facts to such a ludicrous amount it's mostly a reason to put on an ignore list, because clearly you cant' be trusted to not make blatant and easily detectable lie when it suits your narrative. That is not interpretation anymore.

Ryan wasn't "barely hanging in". He was a regular on their 2nd PP. This isn't a matter of debate.
