Panthers' Brett Ritchie: Trying out with Florida
Ritchie signed a professional tryout agreement with the Panthers on Tuesday, per George Richards of Florida Hockey Now.
Ritchie had 13 points in 50 games between the Flames and the Coyotes last season, his highest output since 2017-18. The 30-year-old winger projects as nothing more than a bottom-six option at best, but he'll have a chance to earn a full contract with the Panthers if he does well in camp.

Ritchie recorded an assist in Saturday's 7-2 loss to the Sharks.

Coyotes' Brett Ritchie: Three-point effort in overtime win
Ritchie scored a goal on three shots, added two assists and blocked two shots in Sunday's 5-4 overtime win over the Wild.
Ritchie stepped in for Nick Schmaltz (lower body) as the right wing alongside Clayton Keller and Barrett Hayton. That proved to be a good choice from coach Andre Tourigny, as Ritchie helped out on both of Hayton's goals before scoring one of his own. With four points through three games with the Coyotes, Ritchie is already halfway to matching his total from 34 outings with the Flames prior to the trade deadline. He has eight tallies, four helpers, 54 shots on net, 62 hits, 23 PIM and a plus-3 rating this season.

The winger was often scratched in Calgary, but he should be a fixture in the Coyotes' bottom six going forward. He has seven tallies, two assists, 50 shots on net, 59 hits, 23 PIM and a plus-2 rating through 35 appearances between the two teams.

Coyotes' Brett Ritchie: Eligible to play Thursday
Ritchie has resolved his visa issue and will be available versus Nashville on Thursday, Craig Morgan of PHNX Sports reports.
With Ritchie set to make his Yotes debut, Jean-Sebastian Dea is slated to return to AHL Tucson. In 34 games for the Flames this year, the 29-year-old Ritchie has generated six goals and two assists while averaging less than 10 minutes per game. The move to Arizona should afford Ritchie some more minutes, but that may not translate into scoring opportunities.
