And yes it is hard. That is why it is the NHL. Bottom line is the other 29+ starting goalies stop more pucks then Berra.
Stop making excuses for him. Those were stoppable pucks and he failed to stop them. Again.

Here's the problem of treating him like he's already a starter. He's not. He's getting used to the league and the Flames coaches have put the team on his shoulders like he's some instant workhorse.
It would be better to have an even load in terms of pressure between the goalies, especially if he has some mental issues to overcome with regard to closing the game. Better for both goalies.
At least let Rämö collapse in the third once in a while so that it doesn't feel like it's always Berra.
