Hiller is awful at rebound control. The problem isn't so much giving up rebounds, it's where you put those rebounds. I know that Kipprusoff used to work at directing those rebounds into the corners and into safe areas of play. He controlled where the puck would go. Hiller puts those rebounds right in front, and then he is weak down low.
