Of course this is on Rittich but going back to Hiller and Elliot even, mental breakdowns in key times February onwards, were a trend for this organization that happened under his watch.
Besides a new approach to the day to day teaching, simply a new day to day voice and differing opinion also will help.

Crumbled mentally. You do know Rittich was actually injured each of the last 2 seasons, correct?
Elbow injury last year when the season was paused

One day before leaving [Calgary], I had gotten a plasma injection into my elbow that had been bruised and I had some stretched tendons there… I could not do anything for a week. … This week, I started to exercise a bit and recover. I am in quarantine, so it was a bit of a problem to get some workout equipment from the fitness center. My friend is going to lend me some stuff here in Jihlava so that I can start with some preparations. So far it has been only working out with my own body weight

Knee injury the year before. Well known that he suffered it New Year’s Eve and it lingered the rest of the year

If you want to expand your analysis and question his durability, I could see that.
