Move aside Mark Stone, there's a new trophy on the move.

 

[izzy]

cool maybe the new team will play him

[matt trick]

I'd much prefer to keep him. He's a solid player that we should be able today sign for Demelo dollars. With cap problems having a quality #6 for less than a mill who doesn't look out of place with Burns is a nice option!

 

[Brock Radunske]

Who?

 

[al secord]

Is that the guy who fell in love with his phone?

I know this is a joke but Joakim Ryan is actually a legitimately solid top-4 defenseman who doesn’t play in the lineup due to the coach favoring other players.

 

[Dicdonya]

I’m actually not thrilled if he gets traded, he’s a good young defensemen who is solid defensively and has some untapped offensive potential if he’s not forced to Wookiee whisper.

Who is in the market for a defender?

 

[Smitty426]

We i n Jersey know how that goes. PD finds someone and beats the hell out of them.
JR is a jersey guy and we need D what would be the ask?

 

[Nucker42]

Canucks need defense badly... would Sj be interested in Granlund?

Haha!

Bottom pairing guy on a good team

 

[WSS11]

I mean we need picks but as a sharks fan I wouldn’t be happy if Ryan got dealt. He better not get traded for cheap

Jets for sure.

Scouting report?

 

[Ainec]

Hope the Canucks are in on this

 

[Frosty415]

Who?

Damn kids and their early bed time

He's a solid and underrated dman, that DeBoer never likes to play

 

[Pavelski2112]

Scouting report?

At his best, Paul Martin in his prime. Good skating, defensive-minded D. Not a crazy amount of offensive potential.

 

[DeadGhost]

Unless SJ is adding a d-man today I'd prefer we keep him as depth. With Karlsson's questionable health, the heavy minutes Burns is logging, and razor thin D depth in SJ's systems he's a necessary piece for the roster - even if he remains in the press box the rest of the season.

 

[Dicdonya]

Jets for sure.

I would hope, and assume, DW is not going to help some of our toughest competition out by bolstering their defense.

Scouting report?

Good speed(not a burner but pretty quick), smart defender, not overly physical. Is very defensively responsible, compared often by SJ fans to younger Paul Martin. Has mild offensive potential, IMO, but did not get to really use it as he was almost exclusively Burns safety blanket.

Honestly no idea why he is benched, I think it’s mainly because Simek hits, and Ryan doesn’t much.

 

[SnarkAttack]

I hope the Sharks trade him if he's not in their plans. It's a waste to have solid defensemen sitting on the bench. He was a good partner for Burns last year, but had a bit of a rough start to this year, and hasn't been seen since. He was defensively responsible, a good skater, and had enough puck moving ability to not hold back the offense. He should be playing every day for someone.

 

[Pinkfloyd]

We i n Jersey know how that goes. PD finds someone and beats the hell out of them.

If it were with Jersey, I could see being open for a straight swap of Ryan for Johansson with some retention.

 

[CristianoRonaldo]

Who?

 

[Alwalys]

i really hope we keep him unless we are upgrading for d depth for this year's run.
