Brett Ritchie News

The Flames have signed Brett Ritchie to a one-year, $900k contract extension.

After a disappointing year in Boston, Ritchie landed in Calgary last year and had just eight points (4G / 4A) in 32 games but saw more regular playing time. However, hee will be a fringe roster player for the Flames entering the 2021-22 season.

The Senators are "optimistic" that Duclair (undisclosed) will play on Tuesday.

Duclair missed Saturday's game vs. the Lightning but head coach D.J. Smith expects to have their leading goal-scorer to play tonight in Washington. The Senators did not hold a morning skate so we'll have to wait for an update during Smith's pre-game availability.
