David Rittich Earns Sixth Consecutive Win
6 years agoCalgary Flames goaltender David Rittich turned away 37 of the 40 shots that he faced Wednesday as he earned his sixth win in as many games. Rittich seems to have taken the starting gig away from Mike Smith for the time being and is taking full advantage of it. With a .930 save percentage and eight wins in 11 appearances, Rittich has made a case as one of the more valuable waiver wire additions early in this season. The young netminder is only owned in 56% of Yahoo! leagues currently and should be a priority add especially with each of Calgary's next four opponents ranking in the bottom seven in the league for goals scored per game.
