Honestly, I don't hate derek Ryan, I just am worried he is too old and going to take opportunities away from our young guys and prospects. If he is a 40 point guy next year, contributes and also helps improve the development of some of our young players, I will be the first to admit that I was wrong.

But the second that he is getting moved up the lineup before a guy like bennett or janko I will be frustrated, as I think many others will be too.
That's a pretty contrived spin machine to get into an attempted deadline acquisition that was thwarted when Staal had a personal issue with his family.

The league has hopefully learned from Gillis in Vancouver that you shouldn't make stuff up as the other team can just say no, that didn't happen.
