#3 - broken play, not on the goalie
#4 - how much do you want Rittich to rotate out and stick a pad in the passing lane? No goalie in the league is expected to stop that.
#5 - yep. Thornton took a good shot through traffic.
Goals happen. Rittich played well and stopped everything he should have
Along with some good saves moving laterally and on odd man rushes

agreed
i think this is a game where the goals allowed don't tell the story of the game... Rittich played well and made some big saves especially whenever SJ was close to tying it up... the only goals i would fault him on are Burns and Thornton...
