The questions I have are if Rittich can keep it up for the second half if he has to play at least 2/3rds of the games. I hope so, but I wouldn't bank on it. And can Smith raise his game if Rittich starts to get a little shaky. Again, I wouldn't bank on it. In fact, I would bet that Smith deteriorates even further.

I am really uneasy about the idea of Rittich being able to continually offset Smith's poor play.
