If that was Hiller, he'd be getting crucified. That was an avoidable error by Ortio and a costly one too. Don't see how he avoids any blame for that, he has to take a fair share.

Actually he was in position to make the save. Unfortunately, the point shot was blocked and directed straight onto Zibanejad's stick. He definitely did not hit Ryan, he was raising his arm to protect himself as the collision was inevitable. I don't see how any blame should be parked on him for that goal.
