Outside of the first 4-6 weeks, I haven't had any problems with our goaltending whatsoever. I don't expect either goalie to be Carey Price, but I do expect some level of consistency and an ability to keep the team in games. If you're Sv% is above .910, you're ok with me. Hiller isn't there yet because his play time has been sporadic for a while now. Ramo's been so solid that Hiller hasn't had the chance to play much.

Now, we get to see what Hiller is really made of at this point in his career. If he plays great, that would be wonderful. It would be better to make the playoffs than not and you need Hiller playing great to do so. If he stinks it up, that's fine, we'll accept our defeat this year and get a top draft pick. Also good. The only thing I can't accept is if he's wildly inconsistent, where he is lights out one night but then craps the bed the next night. This team can't do .500 anymore. It's either playoffs or bust, and by bust I mean all the way to the bottom.
