Outside of one or two over the top comments I am not sure there is a ton of hate for the goaltending. Both guys have under .900 sv % which is pretty bad for a starting goalie in the NHL today.
I think Macdonald has performed as you would expect a back-up goalie to perform so far this season. He does enough to keep the game close enough and give the team a chance but more often than not doesn't make the big save and he isn't going to win the game for the team standing on his head.
The goaltending has been okay considering who we have in net but poor for what you would expect from an NHL pairing.
