re: Ryan

I find it bizarre that people have forgotten his season last year. Sure, he wasn't that noticable in the playoffs so there's some recency bias at play (having to drag around poor 5v5 players like Zac Rinaldo and Tobias Rieder will do that) but he was one of our better players last season. He was 6th in 5v5 pts / 60 @ 1.75 (ahead of Sean Monahan and Dillon Dube) while getting buried with defensive zone faceoffs. We probably don't make the playoffs without Ryan.
