Would love to see coach give Rittich a shot at this back to back after a strong performance similar to what he does for Smith when he puts up similar strong games. Great to see Backlund back, the guy's value to this lineup is very underrated. We see it when he's out and they have to put Ryan in his spot, so I don't understand why in the same breath people still want to push Backlund down to the third line.
