Is is simply because he is an older adopted prospect and not raised through the org like Gillies?
Between the two of Rittich and Gillies they have played a total of one NHL game. I don't think this is amounts to "getting zero opportunity," and even though his numbers on the season as a whole are better, I don't believe there is much difference at this point between Rittich and Gillies. As someone else posted, both have been equally good in each of their last three or four games.

I fully expect that Rittich will get a call-up at some point this season.
