Regarding reports Bobby Ryan turned down 7 x $7M from OTT, my understanding is not only did Ryan NOT turn it down, it was never offered.

OTT did present multiple proposals - from 2 to 7 yrs - to Ryan but Ryan's reps didn't reject anything. Said they would re-visit talks later.

As OTT GM Bryan Murray said in tsn.ca interview, Ryan wants to wait to see how season unfolds for him and team before negotiating numbers.
I trust McKenzie more than anyone else when it comes to those things

e/ : Well the 7 years offer is nothing new though. Murray himself (iirc) said that they offered Ryan both long and short term extension.
