Really, they need to do something with Ritchie during the All Star break. He hasn't had a positive impact to any line he's been on. Dube looks comfortable on RW, but Ritchie has to play RW, so Dube moves to LW. The line hasn't looked good compared to when Lucic was on it. With Lewis and Ruzicka, Ritchie forced Lewis to LW. 2/3 of that line was fine.
If we are trying to devalue Monahan, then we are doing a good job. Maybe a playmaker might turn them into a good 2-way line instead of a defensive only one. Trading for a top 9 player bumps Ritchie down and out. A playmaker from the Heat does the same thing, or at least it should.
