Hate to say it, but Ryan instantly makes the Oilers bottom 6 better. He's the best bottom 6 C they have had in years. Really the only thing going against him is his age.
Sucks he's with the Oilers, but from a hockey perspective he helps make their team better and it's hard to deny that when you take off the E=NG glasses.
Decent off-season for the Oilers up front.

I'll not thank you for this....even though you are correct.
I'd wager that signing Derek Ryan is likely the Oilers' best move thus far. I like him as a player.
However, as a caveat...I wish him nothing but poor performance and I hope he just takes his money and loafs about. It worked for James Neal.
