Mike Smith has started six and Rittich four of the last ten games. Neither player appears to be getting rested, and neither looks to have been designated the playoff starter yet. I take Peters at his word that this will be the most closely guarded secret leading all the way up to the final hours before Game #1, and this is really a great position to be in. Both goalies look good, and without a clear starter weeks before the playoffs it is more difficult for the opposing team to scout the Flames.
