Rittich will start Tuesday vs. the Devils.

Rittich allowed three goals on 28 shots in the Flames win over the Golden Knights on Sunday. The win snapped a brief two game losing skid for Rittich, who is 3-2-0 with a 2.62 GAA and .908 SV% in his last five starts. Rittich’s play has dropped off a bit recently, but he is a must-start on home-ice vs. a Devils team that lost six in a row (0-5-1).
