Ramo isn't really any better than Hiller and neither are long term solutions so it's pointless to trade Hiller who only has one year left on his deal and lock up Ramo for 2-3 years his agent will be seeking as then you are stuck with Ramo longer than you want to be. At least with Hiller they can ride for one more season and look to upgrade via trade or sign another goaltender next offseason which is what I expect they are looking to do.
