David's a star player -- it would be like them losing Bobby Ryan.

Bobby Ryan is an exciting player that we are happy to officially add to our young group of skilled forwards. He has a rare combination of size and skill and we look forward to his continued development.

Bobby, I know I just shot a 72, but I've had a fantastic and rewarding life and now I'm going out to dinner with my beautiful wife Joyce. I just can't ask for anything more than that.

We're going to be fine without Ryan McCarthy. You don't replace Ryan McCarthy player for player. You're very balanced out offensively and play team defense.

They wanted to open up room for Ryan, and that's good -- Ryan Zimmerman is a great player and great prospect, ... The trade will work out for me, too. I'll be in San Diego with a team that made the playoffs this year.

The difference between them and a team of hard-working players like Windsor is that Owen Sound has Bobby Ryan. He's a great player -- he's all finesse and he made a lot of great plays against Kitchener.
