I view it is the latter but impossible to prove either way.

Yes, times comes for all. It came for Kipper, same as it did for Hiller, BUT that doesn't mean that Kipper was a legit starter and Hiller wasn't.
Hiller had six 20+ win winning seasons (including one for CGY), played over 400 games with 197 wins. I think that makes him a legit starter. His first season in CGY was not a disaster - 52 GP, 26-19-4, 2.36 GAA, .918 SV% (anyone here interested with having a goalie with a .918 SV%?)
As I said waaayy earlier - goalies are a crapshoot. I just think the Flames need someone else throwing the dice for a bit.
