Speculation: What to make of RyJo?

[Number 57]

Was checking out some stats, noticed Ryan Johansen didn't play at all after the trade deadline, not even in the AHL. Apparently he is rehabbing a hip injury.

If Tortorella gets the can, do you think RyJo plays with Philly next year?

If not, could he get traded with salary retention, or bought out? Would any other team want to take him on? He has 1 year left @ $4M

Could he play at all for Tortorella or not? Philly could certainly use him in their top-9 especially if he wants to ''redeem'' himself before he becomes a free agent.

He’s done!

I can’t think of a guy Torts would hate worse…

Torts and RyJo already tried to make this work in Columbus, no?

Well, Torts tried. Johansen stopped trying.

Ryjo gets bought out

Why on Earth would Torts get the can? That’s preposterous at this stage.

 

[majormajor]

I don't think Philly could use RyJo in their top 9, or top 12. He's not an NHLer anymore.

 

[Curufinwe]

He played every game for Colorado

 

[DingDongCharlie]

Ryjo has to be one of the most obvious buyout candidates.

The guys cooked.

 

[seafoam]

He’s been looking at apartment rentals in Salt Lake City I’ve heard…

 

[Dr Johnny Fever]

I smell a guy milking an injury to avoid a buyout.

 

[Cypher]

NHL is played on ice.
RyJo can't skate.
Do the math, and it equals buy-out.

 

[Cancuks]

I think he'll be bought out and maybe then get a PTO from Vancouver if he's healthy.

 

[HolyGhost]

He’s done!

yepper

 

[Vitto79]

Buy out and will get a cheap 1 yr deal somewhere

I’m sure there is more to than Ryan saying “im hurt” so I doubt it

 

[herzausstein]

RyJo either gets bought out, buried, or gets another 50% retained and traded somewhere for future considerations. Id put odds on buyout though

 

[beardawg]

he's donezo. I thought it was hilarious how Avs fans legitimately thought they were getting a 2C for free


edit: receipts Confirmed Trade: - [NSH/COL] Ryan Johansen (50% retained) to Colorado for rights to Alex Galchenyuk

He played every game with the Avs prior to the trade…. Just weird if you ask me.

Briere said today Johansen says he's too injured to play

So he can't be bought out if that's true

How muchI would I have loved to see McGrattan crack Torts right in his beak.

But was he good? There's a reason why they traded Byram to get Mittlestadt and dumped RyJo in the process.

 

[Junohockeyfan]

If he's on perma-LTIR, that is hilarious! lol
