Hiller or Kipper?

[Newrev]

Hey everyone, need a little help here
I have Hiller, Fleury and Backstrom in my league for obvious reasons I'm none too pleased with Hiller's stats and lack of starts so far.
Now I figure he'll probably pick up his play as the season goes on (although in a time share) as he's a slow starter but my buddy just dropped Kipper...should I drop Hiller for Kipper?
Who will have the better year from here on out?

Other free agents...
Nabokov
Pavelec
Theodore
Emery
Holtby
Neuvirth
Vokoun
Bobrovsky

I could also pick up Vokoun instead to compliment Fleury...
What do you guys think?

Rest of team and scoring categories in sig
Thanks!

Well, here's the thing. Hiller is injured, and so is Kipper.

Hiller has a lower-body injury, shouldn't be out for much longer.
Kipper, out for at least two weeks.

So, honestly, I wouldn't pick up Kipper, right now at least. I would look at waivers for someone like Nabokov or Pavelec, IMO. At least until Kipper comes back.

Problem with going with help on the waiver wire now is we have a very limited amount of moves for the season (need to save them for playoffs), I could pick up Kipper and put him in my IR spot without dropping Hiller until he's healthy. Forgot to mention that Kipper only comes off waivers and joins his new team in 6 days so the pickup wouldnt be long before he gets back on ice.

Well, I stand corrected. Seems like you have it figured out, lol.

If you are able to look past Kipper's current injury, I would rather have Kipper over Hiller. Kipper is a better goalie who will get more starts, and I don't believe Calgary is a bad a team as most think them to be.

Alright gonna grab Kipper then, thanks for the help guys!
