Look at some of the names on the stat list last year and count the number of names that you would think are better than Ramo right now, there should be at least 30

It's only been one game and he wasn't that terrible in that one game. Ramo wasn't in the NHL last season so I don't see how any judgements based on NHL stats from last season apply to him.
One thing is for sure though, with a young team that is defensively challenged, the GAA for any goalie is going to be inflated. Half the goalies in that top 30 would have GAAs close to 3.00 on this team (and would have last season).
