Since Danton Heinen and David Backes are gone, so we need someone to blame when the team doesn't perform well.
Nick Ritchie checks the boxes
- Underperformed relative to draft position, check
- Similar type to Beleskey/Hayes/other former whipping boys; physically large but doesn't run around hitting everything
- Has a brother who is a 4th liner/AHL player so we can project the same onto him
- Has played barely 8 games with the Bruins including a 4 month break in between and hasn't done terribly much
THIS KID'S A BUM, FI-AH DAHN SWEENEY
