I think Peters wanted to pull him, but for the Brodie shot into the shin pads on one. His stick not on the ice, again, like two goals on Sunday right along the ice, so was the second one tonight.
The forward somewhat coasting and both d asleep for thst extra second, but Rittich was anchored to the goal line.
Next chance he comes out 15 feet on a 2 on 1, and needs his players to bail him out twice from a Devil firing it into an open net. And third goal it’s the body language that he’s given up.
Not a huge surprise if they go with Smith in the third, but because two of the goals, while one of them stoppable, were more big defensive breakdowns, he doesn’t want to pin it on Rittich.
