Hose Head Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Jonas Hiller will no longer be a Calgary Flame come next season as he has signed a contract to play for EHC Biel in the Swiss Hockey League. I don't know all the details as I am still at work finishing up my day, but I wish him well and glad to see the contract off the Flames payroll.

I am not going to put total blame on the team not doing well last season because it is a TEAM game and should never be put on one guys shoulder, but especially in the beginning of the season when he was playing a lot he was a major part of it.

hf101 Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 At 34 Hiller is past his prime and I don't see him getting a back up role with any team in the NHL. I wonder what the Flames will do next season in net -- Look to make a trade or just go with Ramo and Ortio? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope they make a trade for a starter like a Cam Ward type till maybe Gillies is ready and use either Ramo or Ortio as the back up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
