same with Rittich.
Rittich's last two games (both against bottom-feeders, OTT and NJ): .953 SV%
Rittich's previous three games (against TB, VAN, and SJ): .810 SV%
Rittich's previous five games (against middling teams): .904 SV%
Rittich's previous three games (against three pretty bad teams): .922 SV%
Rittich is not without his issues, mainly with consistency. He may look visually better but there are still questions to have with his play
go back to him in the next game for sure but I'm slightly uneasy about the Flames' goaltending in general
