Bobby Ryan was acquired from the Anaheim Ducks on July 5th, 2013. Since then, the 31 year-old has suited up in 400 games for the Senators, tallying 109 goals and 148 assists for 257 points. Though he hasn’t put up the numbers he did in Anaheim, Ryan’s most impressive contributions came in the 2017 playoffs, where he scored six goals, including two in overtime, and nine assists for 15 points in Ottawa’s 19-game run to the Eastern Conference Final. He is currently in the fourth year of a seven-year, $7.25M deal. Though he’s having a resurgent season, and providing some much-needed offence of late, this is just not a contract Ottawa can justify paying, especially with young talent waiting in the wings.
