It used to be that a goalie is pulled down 2 at the most. Sometimes but very rarely you saw three goals down. I still remember from my first season watching the Rangers in 00-01 the Rangers were losing 5-2 to the Devils they pulled their goalie and Chico Resche was like "I've seen goalies pulled one goal down and two goal downs but I've never seen a goalie pulled three goals down." Now three goals down is common place. And I know this was an elimination game and Cooper was probably like YOLO but the Lightning pulled their goalie FOUR (!!!) goals down. As a fan I hate it, it results in many more embarrassing losses for no gain as no one's coming back down 4 goals with 4 minute left to play especially in the playoffs.
