Just like most posters, I did some quick youtube scouting on Ritchie and all I really saw was a physical, big winger who has a solid shot. His puck handling didn't appear that great and you could tell it was difficult for him to generate any speed given his size. Does anyone else see him project as the next Kassian 2.0?

Ritchie is obviously more of a goal scorer. Kassian fought a lot more.
