The story of the day in the hockey world was the return of Terry Ryan. At 47, the former first-round pick of the Canadiens in 1995 played his first ECHL game since 2002-2003, on his birthday.
For the occasion, in the uniform of the Newfoundland Growlers, he faced the Adirondack Thunder.
His team lost 6-2, but Ryan still made his mark.
He dropped the gloves.
Terry Ryan dropped the gloves on his 47th birthday!

You be the judge, but I think he lost the fight.
After the match, the striker offered a generous press conference lasting nearly 14 minutes.

It takes courage to do what he’s done, and he fully deserves the attention he’s currently getting.
I don’t know how long the Terry Ryan experience will last, but I’m sure he’ll enjoy his time in Newfoundland.
Ryan hadn’t played professionally since the 2002-2003 season. That season, he played with the Cincinnati Cyclones in the ECHL. He collected nine points in 12 games.
And in the NHL, the Canadiens have not collected a point in eight games in Montreal.
