I cannot WAIT until we have an average goalie again and we can stop defending our piss poor goaltending.

I don't disagree the goaltending was bad again last night, although I'm more inclined to give props to him for gutting out two tough wins with the flu.
But it hasn't been that long since we saw average goaltending. In fact, last season we got better than average goaltending from the Hiller and Ramo tandem. If we didn't, we wouldn't have had the success we did (no team wins a round with crap goaltending). It was weird that it came on the backs of a consistent two goalie system, but to claim that our goaltending as a collective wasn't good last year simply isn't true. Hiller would be good for a solid number of the games, then have a stinker and Ramo would slide in and be good for a solid number then have a stinker, and the cycle would continue.
