Ritchie is an interesting prospect. A bit of a throwback. He's not a big body - measured at 5'11 3/4 - 175 lbs. But he's plenty involved. He works up and down the ice. His reads are responsible. Rarely does he get caught deep in the offensive zone. He's above the play when his group doesn't have control of the puck.
Ritchie is the reigning WHL rookie of the year. He got off to a strong start in Prince Albert. He scored 12g-12a in the first twenty-two games - before his stats fell of a bit - 1G - 6A in his next twelve games.
He's willing to drive to the net. Battle in the trenches. Leads by example. Mix of skill and will.
Sidelined with a knee injury in December.
