Update -- Has the time come to admit a mistake? Kings fans have been asking that for a few weeks. Goaltender Dan Cloutier, given a two-year, $6.2-million contract extension in September, has the highest goals-against average (3.67) and worst save percentage (.868) among the 36 NHL goaltenders who have played in at least 10 games this season. Cloutier gave up five goals in 12 shots in a 6-3 loss to the San Jose Sharks on Wednesday. He has given up four or more goals in seven of his 14 starts. The Kings are giving up 3.39 goals a game, ranking 26th out of 30 teams.
