TV line of sight and on ice line of sight are very very different. Seems like hes moving for the tip as the shot comes in.

So your pinning this game on goaltending??
He's saved as many 10 bell chances as softies given up. Evens out.
Team in front of him isn't good enough. Plain and simple.

A lot of overreaction in thread.

Gonna need a hell of a 3rd but they’ve done it before. I miss last season when they would just score their way out of trouble.

Because he isnt good enough or smart enough hence him being a wasted draft pick and a bottom 6 player

Rittich has been decent but he is the 2nd best goalie in this game

We sucked at the beginning of last year too. And we can easily erase this deficit in the third.

They started last season pretty crappy too if I recall. Hopefully it gets resolved.

You're trolling is getting a little bit all over the place. Be a pro, pick a target.

Remember Paul Byron's breakaways?
Or Olli Jokinen's posts?
Or Bennett's no-goals?
Some real contenders for sure.

I should probably go do something else. This game is making me sad and angry at the same time. Goodnight folks.

Do we have a number one goalie ? Have we failed to address the position for the past 7 years?

Flames have just as much talent as Vegas. They're just not playing well right now. I'd argue that the Flames are beating themselves more than anything. Our piss poor starts and parade to the penalty box are certainly not helping, as the Flames are constantly playing from behind as a result.

Agreed, Flames need to be able to win games where 1 goal against is iffy.

Fleury has had way less pressure and high end chances than Rittich. He hasn't made as many high quality chances. But yes, he's also not let in as many softies.
My opinion of course, but i don't see goaltending being the difference in the 2 teams tonight.
