Nope, he hasn't been awful. On the Jones goal, yes. On a five hole goal in one of the first games, sure. He gets the goat on a handful, but a very small minority.
But on the whole, no. Not awful. I know people will say it but it is in vogue.
I know what I have seen, which is pretty much every game, and he has not played unreasonably poorly night in and night out. Goal by goal, that's the only way to prove it. But I stand by it

He is challenging for the worst SV% in history by an NHL starting goalie. Perhaps you have a different definition of horrible. But he has been horrible.
He is letting to many soft ones in. And last time I checked it was his job to stop some of the hard ones. You judge him goal by goal and if it was a tough stop he gets a pass? Every time? I watch a lot of NHL and I see a lot of goalies making saves on the tough ones more consistently then Kipper has been.
