This is what Ryan looks like when he is a slump. This is why he is not a ppg player.

I doubt he is out of shape. He was above average at camp.

So you are saying it's a lack of effort.

Cowen SMASH.

That is the angry Cowen. Wish he could be angry more often.

Well, he got rubbed out easy right before that. Needs to play like that more often, minus the rub out.

I'm saying it's a slump.

He is not a fast hard nosed player. When he slumps it will look bad. He is still making plays and working in the d zone.

He looked the same at the start of the year. People were Dung on him. Then he busted out and looked like the star he is.

He could keep up to the pace at the start of the year. He can't know, maybe the critics of his conditioning and training habits are right. Would be nice if he spent the summer here and worked out with the Sens training and conditioning staff.

And maybe tthey are wrong and nitpicking based on a small sample size...he only reason he would be out of shape is because of his sickness last year

THis isn't Jason spezza out there....bobby will be flying out of the break, mark my words

I just get pissed off at the hypocrisy of Sens fans. Spezza, Cowen, Karlsson and Michalek couldn't train properly this summer coming off major injuries but have all been whipping boys throughout the year, or at least at some point, but Ryan gets a free pass.

EDIT: This is not to be construed in any way as a defence of Spezza.

I have never whipped Cowen, Michalek. Or karlsson

Ryan gets a free pass because he's been everything we asked for for most of the year. Ohri than this simul he was a complete player who was,often our best forward.
