3 goals on 10 shots is unacceptable. Team is playing well again, Helle needs to get his game in order.
Hyperfocusing on a small sample isn't the answer here. Helle has been a top goalie in this league for years, natural variance will cause him to go through perceived highs and lows but in reality, his game contributes to wins more than 95% of goalies in the league. Better to tell him "be the goalie you know you can be" than "fix this". That could just make him move further away from what has made him successful his entire career.

3 goals on 10 shots isn't unacceptable. It's definitely frustrating but I could find the same stretch for every single goalie that has played more than 100 games in the league. Telling a goalie that what they're doing is unacceptable over a bad stretch is a dangerous game.

Similar to the Rittich game where people were blaming him the other night, it’s not just the goalie’s fault. The team needs to capitalize on their chances.
