GM Sweeney spoke about new winger Brett Ritchie. It will be interesting to see what role he carves out in the line-up. Will he play RW with Krejci or Coyle? Or will he drop to the 4th line?
The Bruins signed Brett Ritchie on July 1st and hope that change of scenery will do him good.
“Ritchie’s a kid we felt kind of plateaued a little bit, needed maybe a change a scenery and a new environment, maybe a different opportunity will hopefully get him back to the level …,” Sweeney said. “He’s a bigger body (6-foot-4, 220 pounds) that can get into the interior ice, but it will be incumbent upon him to take advantage of the situations put him in.”
