I don’t have data to back this up, but it does seem like Rittich gets up more for the home town crowd though.

Rittich has actually been quite bad at home this year:
.903 SV%, 2.75 GAA, -0.30 GSAA, .857 HDSV%
He's been better on the road:
.923 SV%, 2.53 GAA, -0.17 GSAA/60, .829 HDSV%
5v5, he's actually been a below average goalie this season but is one of the best goalies at stopping High Danger shots.
Talbot has actually been the much better goalie 5v5 this season, although of course his sample size is smaller
