David Rittich flashes the leather against Ryan Strome in this CGY at NYI tilt, reminding everyone why Calgary keeps him in the crease mix. Strome dances in looking for the soft spot, but Rittich shuts the door with vintage positioning that Flames fans have seen in clutch spots before. These saves keep the game tight, and with playoff positioning on the line this late in the season, every stop carries real weight for both squads.
Tage Thompson slices down the left wing in Buffalo and tucks one that no camera in the building can confirm crossed the line, yet the refs buy it hook, line, and sinker. Islanders goalie David Rittich fumes about 75 angles showing nothing, while Patrick Roy gripes they had no shot at a successful challenge without conclusive proof. The call stands, Buffalo holds on in a shootout, but front offices know these ghost goals swing tight playoff races every spring.
