I think Flames fans are inclined to prefer Ramo due to the Kipper effect.
We appreciate and trust athletic goaltending having watched it win us games for so long. That's why we like Ramo and really like Ortio, but are less sold on Hiller's blocking style.
That was my thinking until recently, but now I'm coming around to the idea of keeping Hiller as he's a steadier veteran presence and there's an advantage to having 2 goalies play different styles.
