The Flames and the Maple Leafs have faced each other eight times, and the Leafs have won six, lost two and taken 12 points away from the experience. In one of those games, newly acquired David Rittich pitched a shutout for the Flames.
Normally, the days after the trade deadline involve the excitement of playing newly acquired players, or if you’re a team like the Flames, finally forcing the coach to play the younger players after some of the roster is traded away. The need for cross-border quarantine has changed that, so Rittich is the only acquisition who will be available until some time next week.
