Just my opinion that with 2 games remaining and little time to prove anything for the backups (maybe 1 game left where they play half each?) and the coach saying he wants close to NHL ready line ups we might just be seeing our tandem to start the season.
Maybe the thinking is if Smith goes down tonight or wants half the game off etc then they want Gillies to get the net.
Again, might be telling. Could be nothing.

If it's Smith / Gillies again on Saturday against Edmonton, I think that would be telling. It could easily be Rittich / Gillies or Smith / Rittich and then you're back to guessing.
