Interesting... I thought Ritchie had one of his better games for sure (which still doesn't add up to much) but as a fourth liner can't complain with that stat.
It's funny he's been pretty solid all year with his underlying numbers, but just doesn't have any finish, and generally plays with players that don't finish.

After last night's game he's 2nd on the team for xGF% behind Matthew Tkachuk, and first in xGA60.

Fans scream to waive him and dump on the guy, but when you have a nothing bad happens mantra to your game you can see why Sutter walks him out more often than fans would like.
