I prefer Ramo to Hiller, but yeah, its hard to say if Hiller would have been any better. The first goal maybe Hiller stops but he too doesn't hug the post and leaves gaps. The huge save on Sedin that Ramo stopped with his blocker maybe gets snagged by Hiller's glove or he does his seal like flop towards it for a lucky save. Rebound control may have been better which could prevent the Sutter goal, and maybe the one that Ramo directed off of a Sedin. The last goal, Hiller's size likely would have prevented. Bottom line though, Flames only got 1. It really didn't matter who had the net last night.
