Ryan O'Reilly said he was unaware of his father's email to the Denver Post in which Brian O'Reilly said he believes the Avs don't value his son's character. Ryan O'Reilly took to Twitter on Thursday night to apologize for the letter, writing, "I had no idea of my dads letter to the Denver post. It's tough situation I apologize to anyone bothered by this. Hopefully its over soon." O'Reilly's contract dispute with the Avs has officially passed bitter and is now entering the "When will this end?" phase.
