Kipper plays 76 games to your "Elite" goalie that plays 42. Kipper has 45 wins and yours 25.
Of course his numbers will go down,he plays twice as many minutes as your guy. You play Kipper the same amount of games as Khabibulin and I bet his numbers are better. To say Kipper's not an elite gaolie is typical of someone that doesn't like him. That would be like me saying Luongo is crap cause he play for the Canucks.

Kipper WAS an elite goaltender, but certainly hasn't looked like it lately. Have you seen what his stats looked like compared to other elite goalies in the league? He was average, at best, the last 2 years. He was overplayed, but still, I don't remember Brodeur or Luongo falling apart because they played so much.
