There is no question that people will give Rittich more rope against high-danger scoring chances - but that's after he's stopped a few. Smith has a lot of good minutes to play before any rope is let out.
He made a few good saves to start the night, so I bought into the Smith=Away theory, but that lasted nearly half the first before he's outplayed yet again... by their backup... against a team playing B2B.
