The Swiss netminder also helped the Flames reach the second round, boasting a .919 SV% and a 2.61 GAA. Unfortunately, Hiller&#8217;s vertigo-like symptoms worsened during the goalie&#8217;s second season, resulting in his play and numbers to crash down to league-worst.</p>

<p>After the 2015-16 season, the Flames opted not to re-sign Hiller or Rämö. On Apr. 19, 2016,  Hiller agreed to a three-year contract with EHC Biel of the NLA worth CHF 2.1 million. Since then, Hiller has played outstanding hockey for Biel and also was an MVP level goaltender for Team Switzerland in the 2018 Winter Olympics, posting a .956 save % and a 1.14 GAA in four games. Prior to the start of the 2019-20 season, Hiller stated that it would be his last, hoping for a championship run during his final year in hockey.
