I am sure Hartley already made a decision on who will start against Ottawa tomorrow night before last night's game. Hiller only started because Hartley does not want to play Ramo on a back-to-back especially after playing extra minutes against Boston. Yes Hiller played well vs Detroit but what is that going to say to Ramo when Hartley tells him Hiller will be the starter tomorrow? I love the competition by the two goalies but Ramo have been playing well in 5 games in this road trip.
I thought Bollig played well against the Wings and if you are suggesting that Hartley insert Poirer so he can play close to home, then I suggest I am okay with Poirer putting in the lineup and replacing Ferland. I hope that give Poirer a spark and score some goals.
