But when you consider he could have been in against Florida without equipment and got the win and that Ramo is the number one now the only reason I go back to Hiller is if Ramo needs more rest.
5 game trip and the Flames in a dog fight you can't afford a spotty goaltending performance to cost you a game against the league's 28th best team. Lose that one and suddenly you need to win 3 of 4 with the last stop in Dallas and the Hurricanes playing well.

I think it's important that you give Hiller some starts to get his game going. He shuts out Florida and now has the confidence he may have lost. I'm a huge Ramo fan but it only makes sense to play Hiller against the Oil and see if we can run with him for a few games while giving Ramo some much needed rest.
We're going to need Hiller if we have any chances of making a playoff spot.
