And because of that, the 27-year-old has caught the attention of several contenders looking for help in their bottom six.
According to David Pagnotta of The Fourth Period, a trio of teams are linked to the one time Boston Bruins forward.
Ritchie ($2.5 million AAV) is set to become a UFA at the end of the season and has 9 goals and 12 assists in 47 games. Just 10 points shy of his career high 31 points in 2018-19 (60 GP).
Originally selected 10th overall by the Ducks in 2014, the power forward has 181 points in 454 NHL games.
