I would guess that it goes:

ARI: Smith
BUF: Rittich
DET: Smith
EDM: Rittich
CAR: Rittich

up to the break. That would give Rittich 5, 2 and 2 days off between the 3 starts, or 3 starts in 11 days.

Then there is a 9 day break before the game in WAS, so 3 starts in the last 20 days of January.

Then the sprint to the playoffs begins, and I think you basically run with Rittich, other than the 3 back-to-backs in Feb and March, until their playoff fate is determined, then start resting him / managing his time, before the post-season.
