I remember reading last year comments from the Flames scouts that they don't care too much about whether a player is in good shape right now because they can always develop those workout and diet habits (Howse is an exception). It was suggested that a top prospect in poor condition has the upside to be an even better prospect with the right conditioning.
So in a way, if Ritchie has poor conditioning right now, that's the more impressive, because what's his upside when he gets professional dieting and working habits?
