Have you seen Hiller play this year? Do you remember the first two months of the season?
Obviously goaltending isn't the ONLY issue, I don't think anyone has claimed that. It is the biggest issue by far though. We have a team save % of .895 for crying out loud. Or is that the rest of the team's fault?
Normally I wouldn't use goaltending as an excuse but this year it's a valid one. Hiller has a sub .800 sv% on the PK ffs.
