The Los Angeles Kings have re-signed David Rittich to a 1-year contract.
It’s expected the Kings will make a move to bolster their netminding this offseason. They reportedly had a deal for Linus Ullmark at the trade deadline, but the deal was nixed by Ullmark. Rittich figures to offer depth in net for the Kings, and might be challenged by Erik Portillo–who had a great rookie season in the AHL– for the backup job.
