In 2015-16 both the goalies were crap, but Ramo had recovered to the point where he was delivering league average goaltending consistently (.917ish if I remember) and we were toying with the idea of still making a run to sneak into the playoffs. I think the whole deal with the Kipper comparison was when he started using Kipper's 2006-08 pads, paint pattern and all.
Then he blows his knee out vs SJ and Hiller steps in to properly take control of the tank and give us Tkachuk as a parting gift.
Will remember Karri fondly though, especially for the whole "Fabulous" gif.
