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.

Oh man you're a real piece of work SebC. Every shot is saveable amiright?
Thought I'd check out your post to see if you were still up to your usual schtick and I it appears you are.
Why blame leaving guys wide open in the slot, or turnovers, when you can just blame the goalie on every goal amiright?
I guess you just see the game in a different way from most of us. A special way.
PS just because they show highlights in slow motion doesn't mean that a tip slowed down a puck enough that the goalie should have saved it. Goalies are usually in motion before the tip and can't make big adjustments with microseconds to work with.
Blaming Kipper for most of those would show a complete lack of understanding the game IMO.
