This game wasn't lost by the goaltenders. It was lost because the team in front of the goaltenders was terrible.

All true - well, Vladar I thought was pretty wild in his movements. I thought he should have stopped the shot for the second, though he was partly screened by one guy. The first was a wicked shot but pretty far out. Depending on the poster those get blamed on the goalie quite a bit here. I actually didn’t like Vladar’s look in warmup.
But the overall point is yes, they lose no matter who plays and goaltending wasn’t the issue.
