The roster completely checks out when Hiller is in net. They know what will happen.
GM failed the team this year with this mess of a goaltending situation and failing to deal with it mid season. Sent the message that the organization wrote off the season after Christmas. Players just following along.

We might as well be playing Mason MacDonald in net at this point. He would probably give us a better chance to win than when Hiller is between the pipes.
Not even McDonald. I'D give us a better chance at this point
Flames suck
Oilers win
This is depressing
Save us draft save us
And no more Hiller
Not all his fault but team just doesn't seem to play well in front of him
Really strange decision by Hartley to put Hiller in net.
All this talk about wanting to avoid a losing culture.
Wonder what the players are thinking when their coach is not giving them the best chance to win.

I might as well suit up for the Flames goaltending. All I'd do is drop into an awkward butterfly and flail my arms around, so we'll get the same goaltending as Hiller, but at least for much much cheaper.
Be interesting to see if Hartley survives this season, not Treliving's guy, and finishing below the Oilers with a supposedly improved roster is not a good way to keep your job.

This year he's safe but he'll be on a short leash next season.
