But thats not really what the thread purpose is about. There is no denying that Smith is playing well. But if the team, the strategy the psychology all point to the Flames playing better as whole infront of Rittich, then wouldnt game 4 be the perfect time to try it out?
The worse situation we put our selves in, is to do the exact same thing for game 4 and lose. Because if Smith has a good game 4 but we still lose, it makes going to Rittich in an elimination game virtually impossible.
put Rittich in for game 4 and see if the team responds.
