[Trade] Flames trade Rittich (50% salary retained) to Toronto for a 2022 3rd

[Nammer403]

So does Domingue back up now?

[dammage79]

I like Ritter but as a back up. Like Ramo I just never thought he he had the gas tank to be a number 1. Good luck to him. The goalposts in CGY are gonna be mighty lonely now with nobody to kiss them.

That's good value. 3rd pick or a guy that walks. He hasn't been great and its not our money. I trust this scouting staff and like giving them a late 3rd

And good luck Big save Dave!

[Jiri Hrdina]

Good luck Dave. I’ll be rooting for you.
One of the neatest personalities on this team for the last few years

[Lanny_McDonald]

Good move. Bennett and Ryan should be next.

Best of luck, Rittich!

Yeah I believe it is the first time the Flames have retained salary in a trade in the salary cap era.

[Strange Brew]

Ok then. Take what you can get for an inconsistent backup.

Too bad we couldn't turn Rittich and Gio into Brett Hull. Unfortunately Rittich is no Rick Wamsley in terms of playoff experience and Rob Ramage had about 7 years on Gio.

I agree on Ryan but you may want to pre order that Kraken Jersey when it comes to Bennett leaving lmao.

I'm rooting for the Leafs now. We'll miss you BSD

[SOMBRI]

Best of luck. Pick in 2022 is better but still I thought we could fetch more.

Yay asset.

Rittich was gone no matter how this season turned out. Getting a pick is good.

Domingue might play a game or two the rest of the way depending on how the rest of the Flames season turns out.

Sell sell sell

[Skyceman]

Good work Tre

Andersen injury issues, Campbell has been great but seems to be fighting through pain constantly and takes almost every practice off following a game. Plus Rittich has a history of looking incredible against Toronto specifically, so I bet they may have a bit of a skewered perception of him.

But yeah, as expected.

Really liked Rittich the person.. Not bad value for a currently below average goalie.
As much as I hate Toronto I hope he goes deep with them.

[Vinny01]

Rittich is going to want more opportunity next year and I wish him the absolute best. He was a great guy, and I was a fan of his personality.

Glad the Flames are getting assets I think a 3rd is about right but was holding out hope for a 2nd

Looks like Domingue is the backup for now:

Ryan Pike @RyanNPike
Official now per AHL site: #Flames have recalled Artyom Zagidulin from the taxi squad. Louis Domingue has bee moved from taxi to main roster.

It's crazy but I think all farm goalies might see a game. Zags, Sparks, Parsons and Domongue.

Thank you Big Save Dave! Loved your fire and passion

[flamesrule_kipper34]

Miss BSD already, but third pick is great value.
