I don't think anyone is saying Kipper is one of the top 5 goalies in the league like he used to be, but it's a giant stretch to declare him to now be the worst.
Saying he is on the decline is fair though. He is getting older after all. Although I think the team in front of him getting older and crappier too has something to do with his numbers the last few years.
