Ryder Ritchie Scouting Report

Heavy lifting for Ritchie at the end of the WHL season in playoffs versus top seeded Saskatoon but played to his identity - ending the five game series with 3G-4A
All of his TOI came at ES and PP.
Effective zone entries leading the power-play breakout. Comfortable making plays off both flanks in the offensive zone. Equal parts distributor / shooter
Off the rush, when he gets the edge, he takes the puck to the net and displays a quick release
Very good edges. Comes out of his turns with pace. Quick out of the blocks.
Extends plays along the wall. Involved. Competes. Not the high end scoring upside as some others ahead of him in the 23/24 draft class, but more than capable of providing better than secondary scoring and playing with energy.
