I agree with starting Ramo again, after that first complete stinker of a goal he settled down and make some key saves. Plus we've seen this same routine play out several times already this year. Hiller plays awesome and is crowned the #1 guy, but then after a few weeks of starting every game he starts to make some mental mistakes and it costs the Flames. Hiller is not a #1, he's a 1a type goaltender. He needs the rest on a regular schedule otherwise fatigue seems to creep in and he's not effective

Outside of Ortio the Flames goaltending was at it's best when Hiller and Ramo were on a somewhat regular rotation early in the season. Hopefully Hartley goes back to that, even though the pressure to have a clear starting goaltender and ride him to the playoffs must be huge
