I’m not saying Rittich didn’t make a mistake on that second goal here, but it’s also not completely his fault. I’ll even go as far to say it MOSTLY wasn’t his fault.
The players gave up a breakaway, Rittich made the right call to play the puck, and the Flames players didn’t give him an easy target so he had to try going up the middle. Burns also played it perfectly.
I think he deserved another opportunity.
