I think it is fair to expect at least a .900 sv% somewhat consistently or you can say that your goaltending has been very suspect.

Goaltending is a numbers game at the end of the day and not about any one specific goal.
It's true both goalies need to be better than they have. But the constant blaming on every goal gets tiring and as a fellow fan embarrassing after a while.

This losing streak isn't just the goalies not playing as well as they can. It's a mix of everything. Tanev can't come back soon enough because his presence atleast seems to settle the rest of the team down from panicking and making bad decisions that keeps the puck in their zone.
