We want them integrated into their off-ice program and give them a little sense of the NHL without being disruptive here. We've got 26 players here, so we won't be adding more to our full practices, but in the optional practices they'll be getting integrated with our other players to give them a little sense of it.

He looks to me to be a guy that really is taking the team and wants a prolonged run. He's a heck of a hockey player. What a benefit to have when you're trying to protect the lead just the smarts, the composure, the hands, the passing, the physical play and the decision-making. He's been incredible for the last number of weeks.

When it's over a prematurely as it has been in the last couple of years it just leaves everybody wanting more and wondering why more hasn't been delivered.

Ryan has been an integral member of our team for a long time around here. We don't have a lot of guys with the type of tenure that Ryan has on our hockey club. That's not withstanding the value that he has purely from a playing standpoint. He's a versatile guy and he really does a lot of things well for us. We are certainly happy to have him back, and happy they settled and made an equitable deal and arrangement before reaching arbitration.
