That's awesome.

The Flames have done this before recently, haven't they? I seem to recall another kid from Make-A-Wish getting a one day contract a couple years ago.

I imagine there were a lot of Suitors for his services.

That's pretty cool. Love seeing stuff like this, especially the attention the team paid to him.

Hopefully they wait for a road game to start him. The home fans have been pretty hard on both goalies lately

Of all the perks of being a professional hockey player, being a hero and role model to kids has to be the most rewarding. You can tell Rittich really appreciated being part of that.

Fionn Daly was the young fellow a couple years back to get their moment with the guys, courtesy of Make a Wish.

Came to make a joke about him being related to glen suitor(that dude is a moron). Left with my heart full. Well done flames.

I hope Rittich is around for many years. He’s going to be a hero in this community.

Better than our existing #41.

Seriously though, nice to see the little guy make some memories for a lifetime.

Young guy with potential, I like it. Better than going back to the scrap heap for past-their-prime goalies. Although I think since its past the trade deadline he can't play in the playoffs, correct?

Great job Flames, that's nice to see!
