  • What do you expect from hiller?

    for rest of season. i was thinking of dropping gionta for him. i currently have 3 goalies in turco, huet and khababulin. but dont ever seem to win those categories cause turco hasnt done great and the others are splitting time. was thinking it might help to add more good goalie stats in even if he doesnt play all the time either

      Well done on getting Thornton - hope Hiller is still available when the trade goes through...

      Well done on getting Thornton - hope Hiller is still available when the trade goes through.

      Not the strongest of goaltending but decent. Plus, Chicago plays the most games during the H2H playoffs so that might be ok. Don't rush and trade them too quickly. Just keep an eye on the situation if you can (in the news), see if/when one of them will be traded at the deadline. That might help you even more, possibly giving you another starting goalie.

      What are your goaltending categories? Having the Chicago tandem and Hiller is pretty solid for most of the stats. If you do end up in need for wins or saves (if that's a category), then you can put Turco in. It gives you options and you can choose who to start based on matchups. I like Hiller, the only annoying thing is that Carlyle never announces his starting goalies.

      Should clarify that you should try for a keeper goalie.
