The big problem is that we need defense before offense. Even if our offense is brutally anemic right now.

Yeah but it seems like none are available.

$5.4mm. This year and next

That's a 10x better value than Ryan.

Beyond speechless, you can actually see their disgust.

BOB RYAB scores REAL goals unlike other players who score FAKE goals (like Scort Harty & Mark Reed). Plus BOB RYAB is Robby Clark's SON.

Proven first line winger who scores 30 goals a year every year?

Not sure why you guys hate him so much.

I don't think so. Kessel has been better on a worse team with worse linemates and only makes $300,000 more.

Ryan has a cup. And anaheim isnt exactly a great team..

Cant compare the two bc they are different kind of players..

No, Bobby Ryan doesn't have a Cup. He didn't make his NHL debut until after the Ducks won.

He's also put up a lot of his numbers playing with Getzlaff & Perry...Kessel's played with Tyer Bozak & Joffrey Lupul.

Sounds like McDonald is getting a 2 game suspension for his hit last night.

I know what kind of point you were trying to make but Stefan never had a place in the NHL. A second round pick overall should always add up to something. I just feel your point was completely lost on me. As for what to give up, I would give up voracek and Laughton in a heartbeat for Ryan. We lost jvr in a bad trade that is currently hurting us. We need offense.
- SuperSchennBros



Don't understand how right now you can call the JVR trade for Luke Schenn, a bad trade. Looks like a good trade to me so far.

What year did they win the cup? 08?

I understand who he has played with.

Im not saying ryan is better.. just saying its hard to compare two players who play a different game with different players...

I'm sure the one who tore her knee up because she was so freaked out a grown man was hiding in the trunk to "tag" her husband isn't happy to be involved.
