Watched the game as both a Hiller and Fasth owner and this is exactly what I thought. I was very surprised he was first star. Granted he only gave up 2 goals on 25 shots but he had several fortunate bounces and plays that could have resulted in goals. Beauchemin making a save behind him, another one went through his legs then through the crease. The Blue Jackets had several chances that would be buried by better teams. Of the 3 reports ross posted I agreed with the tsn one the most. I'd call Hiller "solid" last night but not much more.

Watched the game last night, Columbus could have easily won that game aside from a 1 minute lapse caused by turnovers. Hiller was solid. Fasth has played well, no question, but they havent had a lot of tough games IMO. If Anaheim keeps playing like that, they will come back down to earth. Beleskey on the top line is a real head scratcher. Looks awful.

Very happy for 30-year old Viktor Fasth. #NHLDucks secure him to two-year extension ($2.4M, $3.4M). 8-0-0, 1.78 GAA, .933 SV%. Good value.

Big contract for a guy who has played 8 games lol.

$2.9 per might be a little high off of 8 games but he was going to be a ufa after this season

if he kept rolling at this pace for the rest of the season some crazy gm would have given him $5.8 per

Wow. Hiller trade? Now they've got Fasth locked up for 1M this year and a reasonable amount the next two years, and they've got Gibson waiting in the wings. Hiller's only got 1 more year at $4.5M cap hit, reasonable for a goalie of his caliber.

On Newper's point, I do see a Hiller trade possibility clearly opening up now.

Exactly my thought too. Looks like the Ducks are pretty sure Fasth is the real deal and there is no way they dished that much money for a back-up. Now the question is, where is Hiller going?
