EDGE Analysis
Rittich wasn't great in his last start Saturday against the Hurricanes, allowing three goals on 30 shots en route to a 4-0 loss. The 27-year-old backstop will look to bounce back in a home matchup with a Canadiens club that's averaging 3.27 goals per game on the road this year, eighth in the NHL.

EDGE Analysis
He allowed three goals. The loss snapped a personal five-game winning streak for Rittich, who has emerged as a solid fantasy starter. But it's important to note that he's allowed at least three goals in three of his last four starts. No panic yet, but Rittich needs more games like his stellar work against the Leafs on Thursday night.

EDGE Analysis

Rittich allowed four goals on 32 shots in a 5-4 overtime win over the Avalanche.
EDGE Analysis
As expected, it wasn't the prettiest of outings for Rittich, but he was good enough to keep the Flames in it. Sean Monahan's scored in the extra frame to secure Rittich's 14th win of the year. The Czech netminder has a 3.42 GAA and a .913 save percentage through 25 starts this season. While Rittich's played a lot of games in 2019-20, Cam Talbot will probably get the start Tuesday in Arizona.

The Czech netminder is up to 13-7-4 with a 2.69 GAA and a .914 save percentage in 24 appearances. He's made seven straight starts -- at some point, Cam Talbot will be due a turn in goal.
