Christ's sake, he made two point blank saves in the last 3 minutes of the game on Perry and then Getzlaf on the rebound.
Oh, so after he gave the Ducks a 4-0 lead? Lovely.

There are quite a few "Kari!" posts in this thread, he made some great saves tonight. He absolutely was screened on the Anaheim PP goal, there was a camera angle from just behind the shot that clearly showed that. I'd have liked to see him save the first one, but beyond that, I can't fault him for this outcome.
Sorry to mention Kari might not have been good enough, but that's the truth.
You didn't just say he was not good enough.
You said he was the only player to blame for tonight's outcome.

Jesus h christ. The score was 3-4 at that point. The game was within reach. He made big saves, you said he didn't. Would it have been nice if he could see through a human being and make the save on the 4th goal? I think we'd all like super powers, but it didn't happen. If you want to moan about him not stopping that first goal then we're absolutely done here. That goal was 90% on Rome diving like a 6 year old with an x-box controller.
You will see in most of my trade/roster posts that I say we are spending too much time trying to address the 2nd line and need to fix the defense. I definitely think Kari is a great goalie, we just can't ignore when he has a ****** game. Tonight was one of his 5 worst performances of the year IMO
He absolutely has to make one of the saves on the 1st 3rd or 4th goals, all of which he had a chance to make.
I understand the 4th goal was deflected but he made himself as small as possible and wasn't even screened (and if he was he was in position that he should have been able to look around the screen).
Right, so the defense is shoddy and could have helped prevent at least 2 goals against tonight but we're going to sweep that under the rug I guess. If the D played even decently on a couple of those goals Kari gives up 2 against we're talking about a guy with a .943 SV%. But since they didn't he had a **** game. Phenomenal logic.
