Ducks Live and Die by Goaltending
Three games into their series with Detroit, the Ducks hold a two to one lead. In both wins, goalie Jonas Hiller looked superb. However, in their sole loss, he looked like the shaky playoff goalie he once was. Some doubt coach Boudreau’s decision to stick with Hiller going into game three with rookie Viktor Fasth waiting on the bench. Yet that’s why the coach is a proven winner...
Steve Palumbo: Ducks/Wings Game 3: Hiller In; Souray Out & a Niedermayer Flashback
Jonas Hiller gets the nod tonight when with the Anaheim Ducks and Detroit Red Wings round one match-up shifts to Joe Louis Arena for game 3.

Wings can't win if they don't score
For the past several seasons, the Red Wings' lack of offense has been their downfall in the playoffs.
Their inability to score was on full display again Tuesday night in Anaheim, where the Wings managed only 22 shots in a 3-1 loss to the Ducks in Game 1 of their Western Conference quarterfinal series.
For the Wings to be successful in Game 2 Thursday night, they must be disciplined...

Jonas Hiller unveils new mask
With fanfare and flourish, the latest artwork for the mask of Ducks goalie Jonas Hiller for this upcoming hockey season was unveiled on the website padstracker.com.
It's just too bad that fans in Anaheim probably won't get to see the imaginative efforts by the creative minds at Switzerland's Airxess live and in person anytime soon (at least the way the current NHL labor...

Hiller to start 24th straight, not slowing down
When you've made 23 straight starts in net, you're going to endure your fair share of situations where forwards are barreling down at you at full speed, looking to will the puck into the net with brute force.
When all 205 pounds of Patrick Kaleta steamrolled into Jonas Hiller on an unsuccessful two-on-one Wednesday night, Hiller shrugged it off, returned to his feet, posted...

Like he did last January when he took his game to a level that got him his first All-Star game appearance, Hiller is as hot as it gets after making 43 saves to match his season high in a 3-2 victory over the Colorado Avalanche on Sunday night.
Hiller has won five straight starts...

WAY COOLER THAN 'JAWS 3'
Ducks goalie Jonas Hiller has 3-D mask
The Anaheim Ducks have had a couple of important changes as of late, but I’d stick my neck out on the line to say that this is the biggest (joking). Ducks goalie, Jonas Hiller now has a mask which is a one of its kind, 3-D demon shaker. The Ducks have had some bad luck on the ice as of late and some folks are hoping this will make a difference.

Every November hockey players sport unusual facial hair in support of Movember, a month of raising funds for men’s health issues.
For Movember, Hiller isn’t just going to grow some facial hair of his own, but plaster his mask with black and white images of teammates sporting their mustaches.
The Goalie Guild unveiled the images today:
