On the GWG, Rittich was down in the RVH position, which is pretty standard when someone has a sharp angle like that. It’s vulnerable to the top corner shot, but seals off the bottom of the net. From that distance maybe Rittich is better off staying on his feet, but it literally has to be a perfect shot (or in this case, a perfect deflection) to go in.
