Well, let's look at it logically. The 2nd goal was in no way, shape, or form Smith's fault. You don't pull him after that, even if the first was a stinky mcstinkerton.
The third goal was a lucky break combined with a full defensive collapse. You can't lay that at the goalie's feet when it was a team effort of suck, so you don't pull him then.
I can see the confusion why not after the 4th, and seeing Smith out there now for the third I can see questioning why Rittich at least didn't start this period.
