Unless Talbot is brought back (he has played well but I hope not) or Rittich is definitely the back up the next season. Otherwise, why not give the dude some playoff experience and see what he can do.

I’m guessing the coaching staff hasn’t liked what they’ve seen from Rittich and feel he’s too much of a wild card. Having said that, considering the way this team has played for most of this series it might be time to roll the dice and see if he can jolt the team back to life. It’s a gamble but considering how the team has played in front of Talbot I wouldn’t be surprised to see Rittich in game 6.
I hope I’m wrong but I highly doubt this team has what it takes to win the next two games against this Dallas team, regardless of who’s in net.
