Ritchie concerns about future

[DangerGolding 222]

Ritchie has been a average player in the VHLM in his time here, a freshman year marred by injury and a recovery to return after being picked up by the Marlins in the Dispersal draft along with the Dragons in the actual draft. 

 

Though he's managed to find the net a fair few times this season a with 33 goals it still feels like he hasn't taken the step forward that many, including himself, was expecting in the off-season. 

 

"I feel a bit out of sorts really, whether it's the fatigue of hard season setting in or the additional workload after a fair amount of out talent was trading away, whatever the cause I've been playing poorly in my opinion. I've been getting my shots off but not hitting many. 5th in shots and yet not even top 10 in goals is just embarrassing, I know I can be a bit trigger happy sometimes but when they are going in it works well."

 

Doubts about Ritchies career in the major league have cropped up recently as he's well behind his peers from the same draft class.

 

"It's tough seeing the Valentino's and Adrienne's of the world getting fame and accolades in the big league while I'm still basically where I started 3 seasons ago. I know people say you just need to keep trying but sometimes that dream of a VHL starting position seems so so far away."
