Kipper gets himself into trouble by playing too far out of his net.
Goal #1: Tip took enough speed off and was far enough out that it was saveable.
Goal #2: Probably the highest quality goal of the bunch.
Goal #3: He tried to prevent the pass and failed, leaving the back door wide open. Should've pushed off to try to make the save instead. Still would've been a high quality chance, but he might have saved it.
Goal #4: Playing as far out of his net as he does is why he had no chance.
Goal #5: Butterfly goalie, beaten five-hole.
While none of them are blatantly his fault, he could have saved at least a few of them. Bottom line is when you score 3 goals and limit the opponent to 23 shots, your goalie should at least get you to overtime - particularly if he has a $5.8M cap hit.
