Continue to watch Jon Gillies develop and hope for the best. Draft another goalie in the 2nd or 3rd round this summer.
I'm done using Ramo and Hiller as stop gaps. Neither has proven to be anything outside of inconsistent. Is Ward a clear upgrade over Ramo? That's debatable, but I believe so. Ramo's play was a huge factor in burying our season this year, and at his best this year has provided league average goaltending. He should not be re-signed (and Hiller will likely retire/leave the NHL).

Cam Ward hasn't even average been since 2011. Ramo and Ward have nearly identical save percentages the past two years. The only difference is you haven't seen Ward play so you're not annoyed with him.
