Ryan (undisclosed) was placed on the injured non-roster list Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Ryan has been away from the team in recent days due to an unspecified injury, and he'll be unavailable for the start of the regular season. It's not yet clear when he's expected to return to full health, but it wouldn't be surprising to see him sent to the minors once he moves past his injury.

Ryan is away from the team due to an undisclosed injury, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Ryan joined Carolina on a one-year, two-way deal in mid-July, but he's dealing with an injury ahead of the team's final two preseason games. Whether he'll be available for those matchups remains to be seen, but once he's healthy, it wouldn't be surprising to see the 31-year-old head to the minors.

Ryan signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Hurricanes on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Ryan has compiled 17 goals and 47 assists in 156 regular-season contests for the Malmo Redhawks of the SHL across the past three campaigns. The 31-year-old defender has four goals and 24 points in 145 career NHL appearances. Ryan will compete for a depth spot with the Hurricanes out of training camp but could spend most of 2024-25 in the minors.

Ryan was sent to the taxi squad Friday, CapFriendly reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ryan made his first NHL appearance of the season and his Hurricanes debut in Thursday's game against the Panthers. Brady Skjei's (concussion) status for Saturday's rematch with Florida is uncertain so Ryan could be recalled to skate in a bottom-pair role again.

Ryan will be promoted to the active roster and play Thursday versus Florida, Chip Alexander of The Raleigh News & Observer reports.
EDGE Analysis
Brady Skjei is in the NHL's concussion protocol, so Ryan could be in for an extended stay on the active roster. The 27-year-old blueliner is expected to skate on Carolina's third pairing against the Panthers.
